Project squirrel

Project squirrel is a yearly recurring event in autumn. When the chestnuts and acorns are ripe and fallen to the ground, we collect them, select them and plant them in bulk. This way we expand our forest year after year. To expand our gene pool and thereby the resilience of the forest, we also collect from other places in the area.

The event occurs every year during the autumn season, specifically when the chestnuts and acorns have ripened and fallen to the ground.
Where do you collect the seeds for planting?
We collect seeds from our own grounds and other locations in the surrounding area to help diversify the gene pool and strengthen the forest.
Why do you collect seeds from other areas?
Collecting from different locations expands the gene pool, which improves the overall resilience and health of our forest against environmental changes.
