Planting Trees in Bad Schussenried
We have the opportunity to reforest various forest areas in Upper Swabia near Bad Schussenried and Ingoldingen. Currently, these areas are mostly populated by spruce trees. Due to drought, windthrow, and bark beetle infestations, damaged areas have emerged, which now need to be replanted in order to create a climate-resilient mixed forest.
Reforestation in Upper Swabia
The total area of the five individual forest sites is approximately 6.5 hectares. We would like to invite you and your company to participate in the reforestation efforts. Every tree counts in helping to preserve our local forests, especially the natural beauty that serves as a recreational and wellness oasis for all of us. The new trees planted today will become the forests of tomorrow.
We want to plant 2,000 new trees, which will be protected from wildlife browsing by either fencing or individual tree guards, depending on the location. We will consider the following tree species:
- Beech
- Oak
- Maple
- Larch
- Douglas fir
- Silver fir
Are you in? Will you sponsor a few trees? We look forward to hearing from you.
