Since "attending" the Consortia Building Workshops back in April and May, the Syntropic School community has been a great help. The initial workshops helped me better understand a more diverse approach to syntropic agriculture. Here in Malawi farming has to be focused on producing staple foods. With a better uderstanding of inter row opportunities for short term crops & using lower strata plants, this can be achieved. The course & community are a real help with a new / different farming system.

Very structured course and program. Rohan exlains everything in detail and in plain english. His knowledge is exceptional. There is a lot of complexity in syntropics and it can be very overwhelming but this course gives structure and Rohan provides information for every phase, a step by step plan and guides you through the entire process. From bare grassland to food forest. He tailors his advice to your specific climate zone, planting area, scope, resources, time and labour availability.

I have looked into different systems to develop our (low rainfall, coastal,) land before doing this course, such as permaculture design. However once undertaking the free 4 session course, I thought here is a system that appears to have simple, linear step by step process. We have since taken up the mentorship and working through the design phase of this. Rohan is great; open, knowledgeable, responsive and supportive in all the questions and comments we have had.

Rohan truly listens and cares about the system you are trying to build. He wants to see you succeed and has a lot of practical guidance to help you do so in a manner specific to your context (climate, growing conditions, time, money, goals). He truly invests his time and energy into your dream.

Rohan is fostering a vibrant community of people who are all genuinely interested in growing great food. This is a great platform to help us share and learn together.
