Vergers du Monde began as a non-profit organization, created to bring farmers from different parts of the world together and to develop experimental gardens where practices, seeds and experiences could be shared.
Over the years, much of our work naturally began to revolve around something less visible: the intangible knowledge carried by farming communities, what is often described as Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK). Whether in the Morvan countryside in France, in Tingsi in Tibet, or among farming communities in Afghanistan, we encountered knowledge shaped by generations of observation, adaptation and everyday work with the land. Much of it is still transmitted orally, and much of it is disappearing.
In 2025, this led to the creation of Vergers du Monde Press, an independent publishing house dedicated to documenting and sharing these forms of knowledge through practical field guides, illustrated books and limited collector editions.
