This enables us to expand existing forest areas even further. The trees and shrubs have been located on former agricultural land that had little added value for biodiversity. By planting new forests, we\u2019ve created big, connected habitats, which will attract all sorts of plants, birds, insects and small mammals in the future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Forest restoration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The remaining trees were planted at locations that were originally home to Norway spruce forests. In recent years, these forests have become increasingly decimated. They weren\u2019t very resistant to dry summers in combination with being gnawed by the European spruce bark beetle, large numbers of which descended on the trees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This example shows why it\u2019s so important to plant varied forests, as Trees for All does. A forest made up of different species of tree and shrub is much more resistant to the consequences of climate change, such as drought, disease and pests. If one species suffers, then the others keep the forest alive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We see exactly the opposite in forests that are only made up of a single species of tree (like Norway spruce) or just a couple of species. If one species suffers, then that affects the whole forest. And a varied forest also has much more value for biodiversity. The greater the number of species of tree and shrub, the greater the diversity of plants and animals that are attracted to the forest!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How are the young trees and shrubs doing now?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Limburg, we\u2019ve planted native trees and shrubs that belong there naturally. They include over<strong> 30 different native species<\/strong>, such as silver birch, medlar, hornbeam, crab apple, sessile oak and wild cherry. And they\u2019re growing well!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The photos below show the saplings peeping out among the grain at various locations in Limburg. Limburgs Landschap sowed this grain before planting the trees, to protect them against drought. The grain provides shade and adds an extra protective layer to the soil. It also checks the growth of tall forbs, such as brambles and thistles, which get in the way of the young trees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Boomplantdag-Trees-for-All-3-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"bomen-planten-trees-for-all-limburg\" class=\"wp-image-48964\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:514px\" width=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Boomplantdag-Trees-for-All-3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Boomplantdag-Trees-for-All-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Boomplantdag-Trees-for-All-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Boomplantdag-Trees-for-All-3-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Boomplantdag-Trees-for-All-3.jpg 1638w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Het perceel in de winter van 2022<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Locatie-plantdag-in-zomer-2023-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"plantlocatie-limburg-zomer-2023\" class=\"wp-image-48972\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Locatie-plantdag-in-zomer-2023-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Locatie-plantdag-in-zomer-2023-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Locatie-plantdag-in-zomer-2023-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Locatie-plantdag-in-zomer-2023-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Locatie-plantdag-in-zomer-2023-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Het perceel in de zomer van 2023<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper  has-secondary-background-color\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\">Survival percentage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">When planting new forests, it\u2019s normal that not all the trees survive. We make agreements with our project partners beforehand about the percentage of loss that can be permitted within a project. This percentage is usually between 5% and 15%. If the loss is higher, due to unforeseen circumstances, then new trees are planted in the following planting season. This is also known as refilling. In this way, we ensure together that the forest gets off to a good start!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drought and adjustment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At some locations, a number of trees and shrubs have been affected by drought and damage from animals. However, that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that all these trees will die, as a lot of rain fell during the summertime. Moreover, trees are often considerably more resistant than we think. A sapling that appears dead can simply regrow from the base!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So Limburgs Landschap takes one or two years\u2019 time to see how the trees develop. If many of them are lost, then they\u2019re replanted. But a small percentage of loss is no problem. The majority of trees that have managed to survive will then occupy the free space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">    <section class=\"wp-acf-block block-slider \">\n\n        <div class=\"slider\">\n                            <div class=\"slide\">\n                    <figure>\n                                                    <img data-src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Aanplant-juni-2023-3.jpeg\" alt=\"aanplant-limburg-2023\" title=\"Aanplant juni 2023 (3)\" class=\"tns-lazy\" \/>\n                                                                    <\/figure>\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"slide\">\n                    <figure>\n                                                    <img data-src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Aanplant-mei-2023-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"aanplant-limburg-mei-2023\" title=\"Aanplant mei 2023 (2)\" class=\"tns-lazy\" \/>\n                                                                    <\/figure>\n                <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"slide\">\n                    <figure>\n                                                    <img data-src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wpdev.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Aanplant-mei-2023-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"aanplant-limburg-mei-2023\" title=\"Aanplant mei 2023\" class=\"tns-lazy\" \/>\n                                                                    <\/figure>\n                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The planting in May and June 2023 at various planting locations in Limburg.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper  has-primary-background-color\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\">Management and monitoring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">We monitor and evaluate all our projects with care.
