One of the most beautiful memories of my time with Mier.vzw was the moments of co-creation. It is so uplifting and joyful to join hands and make things happen. Every person adds his or her value to the project. Everyone contributes their talent, whether it is building dry stone walls, digging holes, planting, even baking a cake or making a good cup of coffee. Happy chatter during work alternate the moments of strong focus and mindfulness. Co-creation enables people to connect easier with each other. We not only create a project, we create bonds as well.

We work in Belgium and abroad. We are semi-nomads. We can stay on site as long as the project runs to enable us fully immerse ourselves into the surrounding nature, to connect better with the people and the spirits of the land. Prices are negotiable, depending on the duration and type of project, the amount of help etc. To give you a clue: 40€/hour (excl. btw) + transport (0,40€/km).
