​
Vegecoopia was established in April 2023, a day after The International Day of Peasant Struggles. The name Vegecoopia is about growing Vegetables in a Cooperative way to create a Utopia :) “DAS” also the point of our existence - to create spaces (physical, social and mental) for people to grow food together, with #Dignity, #Autonomy, and #Sovereignty.
