ERFURT_A pleasant togetherness in nature, shining children's eyes and the delightful opportunity to do good for climate and environment – for this the first four editions of the exciting tree planting action of the LEG summer school 2021 in Azmannsdorf, 2022 in Töttelstädt, 2023 in Haßleben and 2024 in Hochstedt have already taken place. The community action has become a good tradition, and so this autumn it is again: to act sustainably and environmentally consciously, to learn new things and to bring something together onto the way – all this is offered by the large tree planting action of the LEG summer school . This year it takes place on Friday and Saturday, 14 and 15 November, in the Auenteich landscape park (Erfurt) below the restaurant Himmelblau Viet 18 (Talliner Straße 18). Citizens from the region are warmly invited to plant trees with their family, with children or grandchildren on a green area and thus, together with many others, contribute to a place for more sustainability, climate friendliness and quality of life .
The tree planting campaign is organized under the motto “We plant for the climate. Your future forest. Our tree planting action” by the association “LEG-Sommerschule – Unternehmen engagieren sich für Familie e. V.”. Supporters on board include the Schutzgemeinschaft Deutscher Wald (SDW) and the city administration of Erfurt. Sponsors of the campaign are the Thüringer Aufbaubank (TAB), the Thüringer Energie- und GreenTech-Agentur GmbH (ThEGA), the SECONDRED Newmedia GmbH, the Sparkasse Mittelthüringen, the Wohnungsbaugenossenschaft Zukunft eG, and the LEG Sommerschule e. V.
In addition to planting trees, a supporting program provides entertainment and "aha" effects for the little ones: Experts from the SDW are on site, sharing a lot of interesting and exciting information about nature, and all young participants receive a tree planting certificate. This year, the information mobile of the Jägerschaft Erfurt e. V. is also on site during the campaign. The association, which is part of the initiative "Lernort Natur" of the German Hunting Association e. V., presents specimens of various native wild species and invites children to feel objects in touch boxes. Furthermore, Erno, the plush mascot of WBG Zukunft, creates a lively atmosphere. The restaurant "Himmelblau Viet 18", located above the planting area, provides for the physical well-being.
The area for the November event in Erfurt was selected by experts; a total of 1,200 trees were jointly financed by all partners, which can now be planted.
