Pura Horta is an initiative that combines sustainable agriculture, collective learning and community building to foster new opportunities in the local area. Through working the land, sharing knowledge and encouraging neighbourhood participation, the project aims to strengthen the economic independence and organisational skills of those involved.
The project promotes the creation of support networks, the revival of traditional farming knowledge, and access to healthier, more environmentally friendly food. From a cooperative and social justice perspective, Pura Horta helps to devise and implement ways of working and caring that benefit both people and the local area.
