Pavel can't wait to start the Kerterre... See you tomorrow!

11/04/2026

Meet Pavel 🇱🇹

He's traveling all the way from Lithuania to bring the Kerterre building technique to Madeira - and we're honored to host him at Arambha.

Pavel builds fairy houses. Literally. Organic, sculptural dwellings made from the simplest natural materials - no two ever the same. Back in Lithuania, he works with h**p and nettles. Here in Madeira, he'll be working with sugarcane. Every land offers its own fiber, and Pavel knows how to listen to what's available.

For 9 days, he'll guide you through the full process - from mixing materials to shaping walls to adding the details that make each Kerterre a small work of art.

This is a rare chance to learn directly from someone who lives and breathes this craft.

April 17–25.

Mountains that disappear into clouds. Waterfalls hidden in ancient laurel forests. The Atlantic stretching endlessly below.

This is where you'll be building. 🏔🌊

There's something about learning a craft like Kerterre on an island like Madeira - the land itself becomes your teacher. The materials grow here. The rhythm of the place slows you down. The beauty keeps reminding you why this kind of building matters.

We chose this setting on purpose. Because natural building isn't just a technique - it's a relationship with a place.

April 17–25 at Eco-Village Arambha.

No big steel pieces. No concrete. No machines.

Just lime. Sand. Water. And sugarcane fibers picked right here on the island. 🌿

That's everything you need to build a Kerterre - a handcrafted ecological home that looks like it grew straight out of the earth.

During our 9-day workshop, you'll mix, sculpt, and shape these raw materials into a real structure - layer by layer, with your own hands. It's meditative. It's physical. It's deeply satisfying.

Pavel, our visiting builder from Lithuania, has worked with h**p, nettles, agave - and now, Madeiran sugarcane. Every region has its fiber. Every Kerterre tells the story of the land it's built on.

Join us April 17–25.

"What on earth is a Kerterre?"

We get it. The word alone sounds like it belongs in a fairy tale. And honestly - so do these homes.

A Kerterre is a small ecological dwelling, sculpted entirely by hand using lime, sand, water, and local plant fibers. No blueprints. No power tools. Each one is unique - more like a living sculpture than a conventional building.

They grow stronger with time. They breathe. They protect the earth instead of extracting from it.

And in just 9 days, you can learn to build one yourself - right here in the mountains of Madeira.

April 17–25 at Arambha.

Something magical is coming to Arambha. 🤍

From April 17–25, we are hosting a Kerterre Fairy House Workshop - a hands-on natural building experience unlike anything you've seen before.

Imagine sculpting a home from lime, sand, water, and sugarcane fibers. No machinery. No concrete. Just your hands, the earth, and a whole lot of creativity.

Pavel, a Kerterre builder from Lithuania, is traveling all the way to Madeira to guide this experience - and we couldn't be more excited to welcome him and this ancient-yet-living building art to our eco-village.

Throwback to the Permaculture gathering we hosted at the beginning of this year, with our international teachers Jerome Osentowski and Jacek from Truskawkowe pola.

An article about their first visit to Madeira and the workshop they presented at our farm, on Permaculture design, with straightforward action in the garden. What a fun weekend it was, with friends, laughter, and endless inspiration:
