Since 2020, Trees for All has been active in Het Groene Woud in Brabant. In partnership with ARK Nature, we\u2019re planting new loam forests there. These loam forests are scarce in the Netherlands, so it\u2019s even more important to protect and conserve them. Through this project, we\u2019re reinforcing existing loam forests and expanding them further. How are the trees we planted during the winter of 2022-2023 doing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

50 football pitches of forest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the winter of 2022-2023, a total of 67,530 trees<\/strong> were planted in Het Groene Woud. They\u2019re spread over thirty plots, which amounts to around thirty hectares of land. That means we\u2019ve created the equivalent of about 50 football pitches of forest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ARK Nature has come up with a well-thought-out plan to reinforce the loam forests of Brabant as effectively as possible. This plan combines the best of two measures. On the one hand, new forests are planted by hand in order to expand the loam forests. And on the other, nature is allowed to take its own course, and then we see what grows spontaneously in this area. The latter approach is known as natural regeneration. It\u2019s a unique way of working, which Trees for All is happy to support.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
