Soul Food Permaculture
"Stop chasing butterflies."
Take care of your garden, and the butterflies will come on their own.
And if they don't come, you still have a beautiful garden.
Learn holistic gardening – in harmony with nature
Don't you also dream of a garden that is more than just beautiful?
A garden that gives you relaxation and at the same time produces fresh vegetables, berries and fruit.
Full of valuable vitamins, minerals and real nutrients – just like in the old days.
A place where insects, birds and humans live in harmony – completely without toxins.
A garden that works with nature, not against it –
and will actually save you work in the long run.
And how about becoming more independent and providing for yourself to some extent?
About Soul Food Permaculture
André Sicking, Permaculture Expert
My career as a gardener did not begin with an apprenticeship.
but at eight years old with dirty hands in my parents' garden.
While other children played, I planted carrots.
And honestly: That's exactly what I should have just continued doing.
Instead, I first tried everything that one would call "sensible":
I was a plumber, paramedic, photographer, ran a snack bar, made jewelry, managed a company, sold at markets, and traveled for many years.
In short: I've given my true passion a wide berth.
Until I eventually realized:
👉 I never wanted to go to the office. I always wanted to go to the garden.
So I sold everything and went to Tenerife.
There I dedicated myself entirely to gardening – ecologically, intuitively and with a large dose of experimental spirit.
Today I combine permaculture, experience and a holistic view of plants and nature.
For me, a garden is more than just growing space:
It is a living system – and sometimes the best teacher one can have.
My book:
Holistic gardening according to André Sicking
My book also grew out of all these experiences.
It is available as an e-book and as a printed version – and the special thing is:
👉 You can download the PDF version for free from my website.
👉 Available in German, English and Spanish
Why free?
Because I am convinced that it will become increasingly important in the future,
to grow their own food again and become independent.
I want to show as many people as possible,
How to create a garden – simply, naturally and with joy.

Orchard in an agroforestry system
Planning & implementation of agroforestry systems
For years I have been designing tropical agroforestry systems according to the principles of syntropic agriculture.
I have now set up over 30 gardens in this way – and I am always surprised at how quickly these systems develop:
up to three times faster than conventional methods, with significantly less effort.
The principle is simple:
In addition to fruit trees, so-called "sacrificial trees" are specifically planted. These bring minerals and trace elements from deeper soil layers to the surface and make them available to the other plants.
Once a year – in late autumn, around October – these trees are heavily pruned. The pruned material remains in the system as mulch, supplying the soil and other plants with nutrients.
In this way, a vibrant, fertile ecosystem – an edible forest – is created within a short time.
If you'd like to learn more or implement such a system yourself, feel free to contact me. Then we can plan something together.
