Zadruga Urbana

SL

Zadruga urbana – urbano-agrarna platforma – od leta 2010 povezuje ljudi, ki se združujejo z namenom alternativne produkcije in izmenjave hrane. Kolektivizira zemljo v mestu in jo spreminja v vrtove. Zadruga urbana se uči, izmenjuje semena in orodje, strmi k sožitju z okoljem, pomaga s solidarnostnimi akcijami, in še kaj, predvsem pa združuje posameznike in kolektive, ki iščejo alternative ustaljenim praksam sistema, predvsem na področju pridelave hrane.
Zadruga urbana temelji na principih delovanja kot so:
– samoorganizacija
– avtonomno, ne-institucionalizirano delovanje
– nehierarhičnost z direktno demokracijo
– kolektivizacija zemlje
– solidarnostno delovanje in kolektivne direktne akcije
– izmenjava znanja, hrane, semen in orodja
– antkapitalizem, antišovinizem in antifašizem
– enakost, svoboda, solidarnost
Zadruga Urbana razvija naslednje principe vrtičkanja:
– princip ne-akcije – kar želiš odložiti na kasneje, naredi kasneje.
– element presenečenja – kljub prvemu principu znamo presenetiti in kaj narediti.
– princip eksperimentiranja – če želiš nekaj narediti to nared tako kot misliš, tudi če v knjigah piše drugače.
– princip monokulture – če posadiš veliko bo kaj ostalo, tudi če polovica posejanega ne uspe.
Zadruga urbana stremi k:
– vzpostavljanju mreže skupin in posameznikov, po prej naštetih principih
– vzpostavitev alternativne tržnice
– vzpostavitev semenske knjižnice
– vzpostavitev primernega prostora za skladiščenje pridelkov
– vzpostavite solidarnostne mreže za večje akcije, ko je ta potrebna
– predvsem pa samopreskrbi s hrano

“Zadruga Urbana” is a group of people who came together with the shared dissatisfaction for the current system of food production, who believe in the necessity for a collective movement to take the process into their own hands. We believe that collective gardens raise people’s awareness of producing their own food, consuming locally and being autonomous/productive, enabling individuals without land of their own to produce food with a sensitivity for their local natural environment.

Our group wants to bring people together to learn and promote the ideas to find solutions for change towards a more sustainable life regardless of previous experience. Everyone is welcome to participate in our gardens and network, to learn and share the skills of producing our own food. We aim to use local seeds and to fertilize our crop naturally.

Our vision is to connect individuals and collectives in a horizontal, non-hierarchical way, to promote autonomy in local food production and freer access to public land. We also plan to reclaim/collectivize more locations in urban spaces and organise guerilla gardening. We hold regular lectures and talks on a range of permacultural and environmental topics such as beekeeping, composting and germination which are free to attend. We have a plans to create vegetable and seed bank/market as well as social kitchen with produce which is in line our aims.
