Bamboo Project

👋 Hello Facebook Network,

🎋 Together with Boris Baghdikian, Julien Freyer & Alix Lauvergnat, we have launched a start-up in the domain of training & sustainability and are actively looking to recruit new team members . https://bambooproject.be/

🤩If you are interested, feel free to reach out to me directly via Facebook or Linkedin.

🌳 What is Bamboo Project ? In a nutshell, we want to support the transition to more resilient, sustainable & healthier lifestyles for people​​ through the teaching of specific set of competencies & skills. Example of courses are: Urban Farming, Zero Waste Cooking, DIY Bodycare & Housekeeping, ...

🔥 We've started this project in partnership with a first large customer with whom we are developing and optimizing a full training portfolio through the delivery of curriculum/Team building activities.

🆘 The volume of training we are asked to deliver is increasing and we hence are recruiting additional team members. More specifically, we are looking for urban farming 🧑‍🌾 and sustainable cooking 🧑‍🍳 trainers to grow our root system and become more resilient !

🌳 We’re looking for fellow passionate humans with spare time looking to spend it on something meaningful and impactful but also willing & legally able to have a complementary activity ! We won't offer full/part time contract.

🌱 You don’t need a PhD in urban farming or to have worked in a Michelin star restaurant to apply (although you can too if you do 😁), we need passionate people who like to share their knowledge!

🍳 Today we are looking into another core skill we believe should be known by all: Sustainable Cooking.

🗑️ We all know the limitations of our current approach to purchasing food so we looked into various historical/cultural practices which can help anyone to reduce food waste without compromising on taste & fun and while improving their health benefits.

Our curriculum covers a set of principles (3) and techniques (3) which will allow you to capture that value while having fun.
🚮 Zero waste - how to use what seems to be scrap food and turn it into a great 3 course meal
📓 No recipe - learn how to do a great dish from just few fresh ingredients and a well furnished pantry
🍣 Raw food - Introduction to the health value of raw food and key techniques
🥫 Food preservation - Learn how to preserve your harvest and create your own pantry
🍝 Make your own pasta / Taco
♨️ Meatless BBQ / how to enjoy a vegetable and starch based bbq

🚚 Wouldn’t it be great to move away from the lazy food deliveries 3x a week and be geared to cook your own zero waste / high nutritive & fun meals every night ?

🏙️ Today we are deep diving into one of the core skills we believe should be broadly taught : Basics of urban farming. This practice of cultivating, processing and distributing food in or around urban areas has roots everywhere around the world and helped communities to strive in difficult political (Cuba embargo) or economical (Detroit Car industry crisis) times.

Values of such a practice is obvious considering current key societal challenges :
➰ System Resilience - Closed loop economy is the best way to enforce system resilience and reduce ecological impact.
💡 Change Management - Localising knowledge and insight about food production is the best way to reconnect consumers with products they purchase. People start looking at food and their producers differently.
🏥 Wellbeing - Both physiological and mental health are positively impacted by such practices through reduce energy consumptions, availability of fresher and unprocessed food, stress reduction…

Our curriculum covers basics to allow you to get started at home whether you have a garden, a balcony or even indoor. Those curriculums are flexible / adapted based on each project.
🏡 Garden/raised bed setup - Importance of raised bed design, used substrate & water management
🥔 Food production planning and plant associations - How to define what you want from the garden and how to design it to deliver your needs
🎋 Vertical farming - Key to maximize yield on small areas such as balcony or small garden
☀️ Gardening after the ice saints - Understand how to prepare for the summer season
❄️ Preparing the winter garden - Understand how to prepare for the winter season

🚀 Whether you want to start producing your own food or purchasing it from local farms, learning more about how it is grown will help you reconnect with what you eat which will indirectly improve your general wellbeing.

🌍Our Vision is to support the transition to more resilient, sustainable & healthier lifestyles.

📚Knowledge already exists and awaits to be spread ! Most of the key skills we all need for this transition have been around for centuries. We just need to be smart and piggyback on ecological / low-tech solutions from our rich past.

Reducing its own environmental impact can be done through various skills and we have picked 4 of those which we believe will maximize impact on your health & your environment:
🪚Build & Prepare your infrastructure to grow food / to ensure biodiversity on your balcony/garden
🌱Grow your own food (vegetables, herbs, …) to avoid transportation & maximize food nutriment
🧑‍🍳Cook sustainably to avoid continuous food waste and maximize taste & fun
♻️Recycle, Reuse & Compost to minimize the need to transport your waste and re-use them

🐝We work in partnership with organizations on the creation and delivery of training portfolios around a specific set of competencies & skills described further on.

👋Are you our next partner ?

Référence: Texte - Nouveau monde

Tu crées des personnages,
Tu crées un monde,
Tu crées un univers
Dans lequel tu vois des gens vivre de façon décroissante
Avec des low-tech avec des permacultures
Dans un monde écologique intéressant
Mais qui ne soit pas un monde de retour à la bougie
Redéfinir un nouvel imaginaire
C'est-à-dire écrire une nouvelle mythologie
Et travailler les symboles
C'est une lutte plus importante

🌱 First client !

🤓 April 22, after a couple of tests with friends, families and fools, we were ready to test ourselves with a real client !
We’ve pitched our company to UCB, as they were in the process of starting an urban farm project in their HQ in Brussels.
🙌 After a pitch, a few meetings, they decided to trust us ! They decided that working with a young local startup also participates to build a more resilient world !

🥳 Few days later, April 19th 2022, Bamboo Project SRL was born !

🌱 That was the start of an incredible journey ! A close partnership where we’ve worked together and designed two curriculums: 8 Urban farming classes and 8 Sustainable cooking classes.

Follow for more !

💪 Thank you UCB for your trust !

🤔 Why Bamboo ?

🎋 Bamboo is a well known plant !

💪 They are characterized by their strong interconnected root systems which gives them high resilience. Resilience through connection is our key value proposition.

😎 They are also known for being used everywhere: in the kitchen (shoots), in the house (DIY & construction material) or in the vegetable garden (posts, vertical structures). E2E Utilization of resources is another key element of our value proposition.

🎍 IN THE HOLY BAMBOO SHOOT WE TRUST 🎍

🌱 How and why did we start this project?

😷 During covid times, stuck home in lockdown, I’ve read and learned a lot about global warming, collapsology and the biodiversity crisis. Hours of Thinkerview, books from Pablo Servigne, Jean-Marc Jancovici & cie.
😨 Freaked out by the situation, I decided to act. I discussed it with a couple of friends and we all felt the same, we are conscious about what’s happening, we want a meaningful job that has an impact and we want to act now ✊.
🤩 We dream BIG, we want to build a cultural center with an urban farming R&D field, a cooking lab, conferences cycle… but let’s calm down, think big and start small ! Where can we start small and have an impact quickly ?
💡Shoooot! Sharing our building, urban farming and cooking knowledge at a local scale is our starting point!
🙌 We want to bring people together around the kitchen/workbench/garden and give them the keys to change their lifestyle and shape a more resilient and sustainable future !
