Wiosna 2025

Gostynin is the first area announced by us for spring planting. In the upcoming event, we will return there to plant as many as 14,500 trees. This will not be our first visit to Gostynin – we have already had the pleasure of renewing the local forests in several past events. This time, however, we will help in the renewal of forests belonging to private individuals who are still struggling with the damage caused by the storms of 2021 and 2022.

In the spring, we are also returning to the areas of Kłodzko County, specifically to the Radków municipality, where we will renew the local forest. Just like last year, thanks to our efforts, the municipality has committed to allocating an amount equivalent to the funds planned for forest renewal to another socially beneficial cause. We will perform 100% of the work in this area manually, moving away from heavy machinery. And how many trees will we plant this way? This time, 9,750 trees will be planted on the plot in Radków, including oaks, lindens, and sycamore maples. 🙂

This year, we are also returning to one of the most beautiful natural corners of Racibórz – the Arboretum Bramy Morawskiej. This is a forest botanical garden where we will plant 1350 trees, including beeches, oaks, firs, hawthorns, pines, and wild apple trees. In doing so, we will help restore parts of the forest that have been damaged by storms or hail. As an interesting tidbit, on one of these sections, the arboretum staff also plan to set up a sandarium for wild bees. We are extremely pleased to be able to help in the restoration of this picturesque place once again. 🙂

We will visit Lubaczów not for the first time this year. We are continuing the restoration of damaged forests there, this time on as many as 7 plots with a total area of 3.5 hectares, which belong to private owners. How many trees will we plant there? A whole 26,200! And they will be beeches, oaks, pines, and alders 🙂

Szczecin is a new addition to our green map and the first city in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship where our seedlings will be planted. We will plant a total of 17,520 trees there, including 12,000 beeches, which we will introduce as the lower tier of the pine forest, increasing species diversity and ecosystem resilience, and 5,520 oaks, which will renew the area after the deterioration of the existing tree stand. Moreover, thanks to an agreement with the city, the equivalent of the funds saved on planting oaks will be allocated to improving the tourist infrastructure in the city forests.

In this action, we will also visit Łódź, and not just anywhere, but a site that was recently an ash dump. Thanks to our collaboration with the City Greenery Management, 2 hectares of birch forest will be created there, complemented by numerous seedlings of biocenotic species – common maples, rowans, and wild cherries. In total, we will plant 15,000 trees there.

The last area in the spring planting is Tarnów County. There, we will focus on renewing areas that have been damaged by hailstorms and snowbreaks. These are plots owned by private individuals who are unable to restore these areas properly on their own. The local ecosystem will be enriched with 3,000 common beech seedlings and 3,100 black alder seedlings, and our green map of Poland will gain its first location in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship.
