Hi, my name is Daniel.
I live on the volcanic Island of Tenerife, where cultivating rich soil lets us grow nutrient-rich foods with minimal pesticides. But like many small islands, we are facing a challenge: over 90% of our food is imported—eroding our lands, health, and connection to the earth.
That is why our team (including you, our future supporters) is building Bionesia: a green oasis. We are turning 28,000 m² of land into 100% organic farms, solar-powered systems, and zero-waste production. Our mission? To grow food that nourishes our community, create jobs (prioritizing workers over 50), and share our journey through YouTube—so you can see exactly how we are building a sustainable future, together.
With your support, we will supply fresh produce to local restaurants, eliminate food waste, and prove that small communities can lead big change. Join us in reconnecting with the earth—one donation grows our dream.
“We’re just getting started—follow our YouTube series to watch the magic unfold!”
Next update: Growing up on a farm taught me the value of sustainable practices, and meeting Indigenous writer Bruce Pascoe inspired our mission—stay tuned for the unfolding full story!

Important Note About Fund Collection:
This project is based in Tenerife, Spain, but for maximum efficiency and to ensure more of your donation reaches the cause, funds are being collected through our UK bank account. This approach eliminates the international transfer fees that Spanish banks typically charge for receiving donations from around the world.
Once collected, all funds will be transferred directly to the project in Tenerife. This method allows us to minimize banking costs and maximize the impact of your generous contributions. Rest assured, every penny goes toward supporting our work in the Canary Islands.
We have chosen this approach to be good stewards of your donations - reducing unnecessary fees means more resources go directly to making a difference in Tenerife. Thank you.
