It was Ibrahim Abouleish who, after several studies and a career in Graz, Austria, decided to return to Egypt with his family.
Ibrahim had a dream and wanted to achieve it in his native country.
He bought a 70-hectare desert plot and, with his current knowledge and conviction, succeeded in turning the desert into a fertile oasis with biodynamic agriculture and spring water 100 meters deep.
It is now a community with biodynamic fresh products, herbs, tea, snacks and cotton that are sold in organic specialty stores.
