La MARCHE des SEMENCES « The WALK of SEEDS » 
Vendredi 25 avril au dimanche 4 mai 2025 
Départ du Diois, France 
En solidarité avec le Liban* 

Nous ouvrons une cagnotte pour @buzurunajuzuruna 
Prenant soin ensemble des lieux abandonnés, trahis et blessés des terres Dioises et de nos terres lointaines 

Rejoignez-nous, Azul , Maroussia et les ânes , pour marcher, poches pleines de semences 
Au coeur des forêts du Diois, 
des rivières et des champs 
Des pins sylvestres aux cèdres du Liban 
pour prendre soin de notre Terre et d'une humanité solidaire 
en prière, en silence en chantant, en pleurant, en hurlant, en écoute, en créant, en cérémonie, en tissant, en solidarité 

Prenant soin ensemble des lieux abandonnés, trahis et blessés des terres Dioises et de nos terres lointaines les poches pleines de semences...

SOLIDARITY LEBANON - Supporting agroecology and human Permaculture in Lebanon
WE HAVE OPENNED A PARTICIPATORY FUNDING FOR BUZURUNA JUZURUNA “BUJU”

PROJECTS , THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your donations and solidarity.  The money will go towards 2 projects:
This funding will be used to finance various projects carried out by the Buzuruna Juzuruna school farm and its partners. Key projects for 2025 include :

- The Bulaban Circus: for the past 3 years, a small circus initiation association has set up its big top in the middle of the farm to introduce children (from the farm and the neighborhood) to circus, manual and artistic activities.
In 2024, the Bulaban collective enabled some forty children to take part in weekly workshops; an opportunity for them to imagine and bring stories to life, learn new tricks and have fun together. These workshops culminated in June with a beautiful parade through the streets of Saadnayel!
In order to be able to continue their work, we would like to support them by purchasing materials that will be used to run the workshops. 

- The creation of a new collective garden on the Beqaa plain. This garden will benefit 15 families (Syrian and Lebanese), covering 1 hectare. 
These gardens are intended to last over time. In doing so, we hope to meet a number of local challenges:
- Provide a healthy, local food supply;
- Enabling families to become more self-sufficient and less dependent on subsidies and/or market prices;
- Break out of isolation by creating a space for inter-community collaboration between host and refugee families;
- Improve living conditions;
- Anticipate future crises that could exacerbate food insecurity.

The funds raised will be used, among other things, to finance the purchase of tools, irrigation systems, training...
