The Za Ljubač initiative
An olive grove bearing fruit again. A path that brings people together. A village with life after summer. Za Ljubač is an initiative to form an association of residents and friends of the village.
We want to connect agriculture, sport and visits to nature. Local families, students and people with roots in Ljubač who live elsewhere all have a place in that vision.
Caring for the land, getting outside and working together belong to the same story.

We want restored olive groves to welcome walking and running. The land finds a purpose again, and people have a reason to get outside.

Competitors and recreational athletes belong in the same vision. Sporting events connect Ljubač with people who enjoy being outside.
