Journey To The Farm.

Updated: Sep 17


My journey from a typical city living where i was born and raised between Qatar, Tunisia (Ariena) and Usa (where i had my university years). Has thought me a lot but was missing the bigger parts of the puzzle which was knowing the basics to be a part of nature and the ecosystem not just the system we live at.

My spark of interest into the farm learning has started when i wanted to know more about the best food in order to perform better as a football player. This is where I wanted to know more about organic food and all.

Anyways to make this story shorter, getting organic food in Qatar was very expensive and not even granted that it's fresh.That was one of the pushes to go back to Tunisia and start a farm fantasy.

everything was so uncomfortable when I first started the farm, a lot of learn (everything basically from 0). definitely one the best decisions i have taken was to take a permaculture course in Tunisia.Thats when, I discovered the Basics of permaculture, the importance

of diversity, and the satisfaction of self-sufficiency.

After the permaculture course, I have stared to apply slowly what I can and one of the first things that i have included was chicken.

The journey on the farm pushed me to dig deeper and to educate myself further about our primal activities, I have realized that I was doing something right for the soil, the animals, my family, the people around me, and myself and that has given me a great push. The farm became a place where I could contribute to the well-being for my self and the environment.


As time went on, the farm became a source of self-sufficiency and freedom. The production of free-range organic eggs and olive oil became the base of our farm's food supply.

With each passing day, I added more elements to the equation some work some don't but it's always teaching.
