📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
You are interested in a varied camp in nature conservation? Then this is the right place for you! In the municipality of Heidenrod your help is needed for many different nature conservation tasks: Together with the foresters you will plant different tree species for example. In addition the planting areas must be prepared with brushwood piles. The newly planted Douglas firs (tree species) have to be protected from deer, for this you have to control, repair and renew the protection fences. You will also repair existing fencing. Unfortunately, there are also many dead spruces (tree species), you will have to remove them and from the remaining wood and brushwood you will build brushwood piles, which are very important for the protection of birds and small animals. Along the edges of the forest of Mehrbach, you will remove the remains of barbed wire for the protection of animals and the environment.
