Melanesian Way Gardening

About Eloma Gardens

To Home the Lost Souls & House Wandering Spirits

Eloma Gardens Demonstrate The Melanesian Way of Life, the root (eloma) of our human civilization, to restore our human relationships with ourselves and with other beings, to demonstrate our inter-connections and inter-dependence among all communities of beings

Our gardening activities at Eloma Gardens are intended to do two things: first to help human beings to understand and practice the “Wita-Waya” concept in life and living that are commonly known and practiced by Melanesian tribes; and second to home and nurture the wildly wandering and widely scattered souls.

As environmental concerns grow, sustainable and ecological gardening practices as practiced by Melanesian tribes gain importance. These practices focus on creating self-sustaining ecosystems, emphasising biodiversity, soil health, and water conservation. Gardening, thus, becomes a tool for environmental stewardship, demonstrating how individual actions can contribute to a sustainable future.

The Therapeutic Roots of Gardening

Practice the Melanesian Way gardening (approach, methods and system) to demonstrate the inter-relationship, inter-connectedness and inter-dependence of life and living of communities of beings, both individually and as groups.

Eloma Gardens demonstrate the original way of life: fully organic, fully Melanesian, and fully local, in life and living.

Orphaned souls come home to settle, and wandering spirits find house to dwell:

(1) to the community of human beings;

(2) into the communities of all beings; and

(3) into the land where all dwell and multiply.
