  The Weerd-Fischergrien is a floodplain of national importance characterized by open areas with ponds that benefit rare species such as the yellow-bellied toad. For the ponds to remain attractive to these species, they must receive plenty of sunlight, for which reason shrub growth must be prevented. To control these saplings (willows and poplars) effectively, they must be fully uprooted and removed. You will be rewarded with a snack and a 30-minute guided tour of the BirdLife nature center at the Klingnauer reservoir. Thank you in advance for your support!

  The Marchethon Bern is a sponsored run organized by the association Cystic Fibrosis Switzerland and which takes place every year on the last Saturday in October in Bern. All of the money raised by the event as well as all donations will be given to the association Cystic Fibrosis Switzerland. The association’s goal is respectful and dignified treatment as well as good conditions for autonomous living with this hereditary disease – until the day cystic fibrosis becomes curable. To be able to hold the marchethon.ch, we rely on energetic volunteers. We are grateful for any help

  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.

  Wild hedges provide a habitat for countless animals and plants. On National Hedge Day, wild hedges are planted and maintained at various locations in Switzerland, including Parc Ela, Switzerland’s largest regional nature park. In the unique landscape of Lantsch/Lenz in Graubünden, we'll tend to the hedges together. While we work, we’ll learn interesting facts about the history of the landscape, the benefits of hedgerows and how the quality of a habitat can be improved with only simple tools. At the same time, we’re supporting farming.
