The association aims to promote conscious interaction with the earth and its inhabitants (both within and outside the association). Specifically, the association can acquire land in Switzerland and abroad (in particular, land that appears unsuitable for normal 'profitable' management due to its location and/or condition) and use it itself or make it available to individuals or institutions for environmentally friendly use or management (exclusively organic farming or organic permaculture, etc.); the association can organize workshops and other events; the association can raise public awareness through publications; the association can sell 'items' that it deems suitable to promote its purpose (e.g. books, pictures, music CDs, etc.); the association can take all further measures that it deems suitable to achieve its purpose. The association is a non-profit organization. It does not operate a commercial business. The association is politically and denominationally neutral and unaffiliated.
