With your financial support, this winter we will plant an incredible 30,000 trees and shrubs on about 11 hectares in the first large agroforestry system on the Stiftung Zukunftsland's land.
In addition to the plants themselves, the money will enable us to enrich the very impoverished soil with Terra Preta and rock flour so that the young plants can grow well. Furthermore, the tree rows will be covered with wood chips so that the soil is better protected from drying out. Since we want to protect the young trees in case of another drought, the total sum also includes drip irrigation.
On top of that, we will provide food and lodging for the volunteers who will make their way up our windy mountain in winter to put the trees in the ground. All the trees will be planted on a voluntary basis and together we will work thousands of unpaid hours in all weathers, this is our contribution for a future fit for grandchildren!. All this is only possible with your support!
Here is a detailed overview of the costs:
First Fundingoal
Second Fundingoal
If you help us to even reach our second funding goal, the regeneration of the soil and biodiversity can take place on additional areas where we would like to plant more species-rich hedges this winter! In addition, we can integrate more plant layers and even more fruit and berry bushes into the nut agroforestry system!
Help us to show, also here in Germany, that the production of our food can be climate positive and beneficial to the environment!
⭐ In return we offer exciting rewards and hope that everyone will find something suitable!
⭐ Is just giving money not enough for you? Do you also want to plant trees? Then help us during the planting! If you are interested, you can contact us on our website as a volunteer: www.hoflebensberg.de/mitmachen/ - Planning can change due to corona situations.
