Into the blue North Nordskills workshops aim to pilot and refine self-sufficiency skills based educational modules with a focus on DIY regenerative aquaculture practices suitable for Nordic lake, river and sea environments.
Much of the workshops focuses on the expertise broad by Aktion Österbotten in the fields of floating gardens and regenerative duck mussel farming that will be tested and refined throughtou the project as an educational self-sufficicney and regenerative practice.
Below you can have a look at some examples of ‘Into the blue north’ Nordskills workshops carried out in the project by our partners:
Floating garden workshop Sinkkola
During the Nordskills project meeting in Sinkkola urban farm, Joensuu, Aktion Österbotten provided a first floating garden building workshop to project partners (23.5.2026).
The 2 hour workshop created 4 floating garden frames and two completed smaller modules to be used in the new pond in Sinkkola Eco-club garden as a showcase.
The prepared frames will be used for continous workshops in Sinkkola to be filled and planted in order to be employed in Joensuu area at suitable locations.
