Sustainable Food and Agriculture

The Touriver adventure begins with Abderrahmane Kroumille’s deep passion for nature. Inspired by his years of studying biology, he dreamed of creating a place where harmony between humans and nature could become a reality. In 2022, Touriver was born, stretching over 15,000 m² as an oasis of sustainability, offering a multitude of unique experiences, and inspiring a growing community to adopt a more responsible lifestyle.

Community Gardens: Cultivating Hope and Autonomy

At the heart of Touriver, 150 plant species thrive in permaculture. Bees buzz peacefully, while alpine goats and rabbits frolic joyfully. Allotments of 100 square meters and training in sustainable agriculture are available to city dwellers who aspire to cultivate their own healthy, organic food. Rented annually, these plots can provide up to 60% of the food needs of a household of 5 people.

A Haven for Rejuvenation

Far from the city’s hustle and bustle, Touriver offers four types of unique accommodation. Nestled in lush greenery in Berrechid, they invite guests to relax and contemplate. “We want our visitors to experience an immersive and authentic rural lifestyle,” confides Abderrahmane.

Learning and Acting for a Sustainable Future

Touriver also serves as an environmental education center. Workshops and training on permaculture, renewable energy, and stargazing are offered to families, schoolchildren, and businesses. Touriver has quickly become a place of learning and sharing where everyone can discover sustainable solutions for the future.

A Living Laboratory for Innovation

Touriver is a true laboratory for agricultural innovation. The farm has a tilapia pond, a biogas digester, solar panels, and a wastewater treatment system for ecological and responsible irrigation. “We are constantly looking for new technologies to reduce our environmental impact,” explains Abderrahmane. In 2024, he plans to launch a hydroponics project called “Green for All” in collaboration with a startup specializing in these technologies.

An Inspiring and Expanding Model

Touriver’s story has already inspired several families. Mr. Abdellah, a subscriber to the community gardens, shares his experience.

"Touriver offered me much more than a plot of land. It was an opportunity to reconnect with the earth and grow organic food. My subscription was the starting point for an adventure that transformed my relationship with nature."

Another success story comes from Mr. Abdelghani. Thanks to a year’s subscription to the community gardens, he not only learned the secrets of sustainable agriculture but also found the inspiration to buy his own plot of land.

"Touriver gave us the tools and knowledge to achieve our dreams of food self-sufficiency. It is a real catalyst for change."
