UNHIDE LATVIA
UNHIDE SWEDEN

UNHIDE AGROFORESTRY is a collaboration between Agroforestry Sweden, represented by Maja & Anders, Latvian Permaculture Association & MEŽA PROJEKTI with support from Erasmus+. It includes 2 road trips to unhide inspiring practicies of agroforestry in Sweden & Latvia during 2024.
The project is reported from the Swedish side in the form of this film by Maja, and a road-trip-conclusion and site presentations, seen from a Swedish context (a pdf by Maja and Anders) in November 2024. Lessons learned from the project have been presented by Anders during 2024,  at the Urban Food & farming Week at Botildenborg, Malmö, at SLU, Alnarp and during the yearly Nut Network Day at Holma folkhögskola in October.

I'm a Tree

"I'm a Tree, what do I need?" is a film portrait of the Latvian forest owner and forester Agnis Graudulis, who for several years collected seeds of sweet chestnut (Castaneva sativa), walnut (Juglans regia) and much more in Nordic and Baltic countries, with the aim to get as broad genetic diversity as possible, and has since built a 50 hectar ”off-grid” agroforestry /Food forest system with great dedication of labor to the plantings, nature-based solutions to water management, and biodiversity. Runningtime 20 min. Photography, editing, production: Maja Lindström Kling.
