Neerach

Important note: Will be carried out taking protective measures into consideration

17 spaces are still free 36 days remaining until

The Neeracherried is a natural habitat for countless animals and plants – it contains populations of national importance and has more than 450 documented plant species. But these native populations are being increasingly threatened by invasive plants that have been introduced to the region. Unless we take measures to protect them, newcomers like golden rod could completely overwhelm weaker native species like orchids. It is not enough to regularly mow the reed meadows. The only way to preserve biodiversity effectively is by pulling out invasive plants by their roots.

On 2 September we will be collecting food items to save them from going to waste.

A 3x3 m tent will be set up in front of several UBS branches. As a volunteer, you will ask passers-by to donate/deposit food items in the tent. These can be food items* brought from home or that they have just bought. (*unopened, non-refrigerated items in perfect condition such as rice, canned goods, oil, vinegar, pasta, sugar, flour, salt, etc. Items must be in date; no fresh products or frozen food). The items will then be taken to nearby regional warehouses of Tischlein deck dich, where they will be repackaged and distributed to people affected by poverty in Switzerland. Assignment: 1 and/or 2 September 2021. Commitment: At least 3 hours, ideally between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. You will receive detailed information shortly before the assignment.

“Tree hollow habitat” project, October 2

Elm, Glarus

Important note: Will be carried out taking protective measures into consideration

3 spaces are still free 51 days remaining until

Tree hollows are ecologically important; in this project, volunteers carve out cavities in trees scattered across Switzerland's natural landscape. These increasingly scarce hollows serve as refuge, breeding, wintering or feeding sites for many endangered species, including honeybees. Volunteers cut out a Zeidlerhöhle (hollows that serve as bee hives) into the trunk of a living tree. Habitable trees with suitable microhabitats and tree hollows have become rare in the Swiss countryside. Without them, the forest ecosystem is disturbed. To strengthen the biodiversity and resilience of a forest, tree microhabitats in forest ecosystems are identified, preserved and supported when threatened. The project's main aim is to provide nesting sites for wild honeybees and other tree-cavity-dwelling species worthy of protection. Besides honeybees, 30 types of insect, 170 different mites and arachnids, as well as thousands of microorganisms live in symbiotic community in a beehive tree hollow.
