Solutions for a greener Mediterranean
Mission and Vision
The whole mediterranean Basin was once covered in lush forests.
Our aim is to contribute towards the rehabilitation of these eco-systems using principals and techniques of Syntropic Agroforestry.
In this way we garuantee the healthy re-integration of humans into the eco-system, producing diverse habitats, food, soil, and natural resources at the same time.

Founder
GrowBack was founded in 2018 by Marc Leiber.
During his professional training in Agronomy he started questioning the contemporary methods of Agriculture and looking for alternatives. After meeting Ernst Götsch it was clear to him that this was the concept that he had been searching for. After completing two professional internships in the Farm of Ernst Götsch he felt the strong mission to research the application of Syntropic farming in the mediterranean context. Since five years he is focused on the development of his own pilot project, Quinta das Abelhas, and has been involved as project supervisor and consultant in other projects.
