Cleaning day in the Pfyn Forest

Salgesch

15.04.2023

Free spaces available Year-round recurring
Unfortunately the forest of Pfyn/Finges nature reserve is still being abused by many people to conveniently and cheaply dispose of their rubbish! The cleaning day is intended to draw attention to this abuse. With the support of campaigns and voluntary helpers, we clear out refuse in various places in Pfyn/Finges Nature Reserve. Commit yourself for a day long and help us to keep our park clean.

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.
