Today is Dutch Overshoot Day, the day when we as Dutch people have used up the biocapacity available for the year. In other words, if everyone on Earth were to live like in the Netherlands, we would need 3.6 times the Earth's resources. The exploitation of the planet is at the root of climate change and the biodiversity and nitrogen crises.
WeGrow connects builders and farmers.
The WeGrow platform brings together agro-construction and biobased construction through knowledge sharing and connection between both target groups. Together, we are creating a sustainable future!
In collaboration with its partners, WeGrow offers an extensive annual program for the community of builders and farmers. The program includes company visits, podcasts, conferences, networking events, and daily content via the website and social media. Working with various content partners such as Building Balance, Farmers for Biobased Building, and Nieuwe Oogst, WeGrow is developing opinions and content to share with its community.
Collaboration between builders and farmers not only leads to more sustainable construction projects and agriculture but also to new innovations and business models. By working together, we can address the challenges of the future and have a positive impact on people, animals, and the environment.
