The Association EPEKA, a social enterprise, and Kmetija pri Kovačniku are organising an educational and promotional event within the project “Farm – a place of diversity”.

All those interested in organic farming, linking entrepreneurship or complementary activities with agricultural activity, social inclusion and farm work are invited to participate.

Event programme:

  • 10.00                   Meeting of participants and presentation of the farm
  • 11.00 – 14.00      Education, training and work on the farm
  • 14.00 – 15.00      Lunch
  • 15.00 – 17.00       Free afternoon, local wine tasting and networking
  • 17.00 – 20.00      Continuation of education, training and work

The project Farm – a space of diversity aims to increase the capacity of agricultural holdings to work with vulnerable groups with a view to their social activation and faster reintegration into society and the labour market. In this context, the intergenerational component will also be emphasised, as well as educational approaches that allow the transfer of knowledge between all participants and also between educators. The latter will have, for the farms involved and other farms that decide to carry out such activities, mainly social benefits with the possibility of secondary economic benefits.

To participate in the event, applications are required and are accepted at: epeka@epeka.si. As places are limited, you will be notified by 12 noon on Wednesday 7 July 2021 whether your application has been confirmed.
