At Wild Turtle, we're familiar with a plethora of terms like Eco-concept, Eco-project, Eco-village, and many more. While these terms are often used for greenwashing, we align with the core principles they represent. However, what truly matters is the tangible actions we take to embody these ideals. Our commitment extends beyond labels, as we actively strive to create a sustainable, environmentally conscious community.
Our vision is deeply rooted in nurturing the ecological harmony of our land. Our journey began with a steadfast commitment to restoring the land's natural balance, from reintroducing native fauna to combating erosion and waste pollution.
Through diligent efforts, we've created diverse habitats for a multitude of species, including humans, fostering a vibrant ecosystem teeming with life.
From the outset, our focus has been on sustainable practices, employing natural building methods such as adobe and cob straw, and harnessing resources sourced directly from the land. We've planted over 300 indigenous trees, propagated over 1000 Mediterranean plants from scratch, and established small gardens for experimental vegetable cultivation.
In parallel, we've developed living spaces for ourselves and volunteers, incorporating biodynamic gardening techniques, nurturing key plants in our plant nursery, and cultivating seeds sourced from friends and neighbors.
At the heart of our ethos lies a commitment to eco-conscious living, where every action resonates with our deep love for nature and our desire to forge sustainable human connections.
Beyond mere discussions, our passion fuels tangible actions – from recycling wastewater to maintaining a healthy compost, installing comfortable composting dry toilets, employing natural building techniques, sourcing locally, and minimizing our use of plastics.
Beyond our haven, we aspire to set an example for the burgeoning eco-tourism industry in Morocco, encouraging the adoption of eco-friendly practices for a cleaner and more accessible country.
Our overarching goal has always been to move towards off-grid living, interconnecting all systems to harmonize with all living beings.
Through our actions, we aim to inspire others to join us in our journey towards a greener, more sustainable future.
