In this inspiring documentary, a Scandinavian family share their journey of transforming barren, lifeless soil into a thriving, self-sustaining ecosystem.
Over 12 years, they have built a regenerative permaculture farm with perennial plants, integrated livestock, and a resilient food system – all while creating a sustainable home and business.
With deep expertise in permaculture, agroforestry, and ecological design, Karoline Nolsø Aaen and Tycho Holcomb demonstrate that restoring the land is not only possible but essential for future generations. Through hands-on experience, research, and a passion for nature, they have developed a model farm that nurtures biodiversity, improves soil health, and produces nutrient-rich food.
This film offers a rare glimpse into the principles of regenerative agriculture, showing how dedication, knowledge, and a deep connection to nature can heal the land and inspire much needed change.

Award 2024:
Myrrhis received PlanEnergi’s Green Award 2024 for their work:
Managing and developing their self-sustaining garden and forest, where they build up the soil instead of depleting it.
Using water and energy intelligently, and often multiple times.
Creating systems that work together, where a balanced meat production is included.
Expanding our pantry, horizons, and spreading their production principles.
Myrrhis generously shares their experiences by writing, demonstrating, and explaining these ideas. Their approach helps us view a self-sustaining garden as an easy-to-maintain garden, which inspires more people to start their own.
