Care for Donauinsel Mariaort in Regensburg

Care for Donauinsel Mariaort in Regensburg BUND Naturschutz Kreisgruppe Regensburg stewards Donauinsel Mariaort, a Danube island meadow in Pettendorf. Volunteers scythe and rake; the city office on Dr.-Johann-Maier-Straße is the indoor door, not the work site. What you can do - Offer meadow care (scythe and rake) via Donauinsel Mariaort - Join the Aktivenliste if you prefer a regular crew - Help in the office or at public events if island days do not fit your week How it works Island care is seasonal meadow work. Call the Kreisgruppe office (Mo to Do 09:00 to 12:30, 0941 23090) before you travel to Pettendorf. Why it matters A scythed Danube island keeps space for lizards, devil's-bit, and dragonflies within reach of Regensburg.

Hofflohmärkte, neighbourhood courtyard flea market in Munich

Hofflohmärkte, neighbourhood courtyard flea market in Munich Hofflohmärkte is a Germany-wide reuse programme: residents register a private courtyard, garden, or garage and sell pre-loved goods while neighbours follow a linked tour plan through the district in Munich. The platform runs in 30+ cities and 300+ neighbourhoods; initiator René Götz operates registration, participants organise their own courtyards. What you can do - Download the tour plan PDF for your Viertel (published about one week before each market day) - Walk the linked addresses and buy second-hand treasures from neighbours - Register your own Hof if you have landlord approval and goods to pass on How it works - Sales stay on private ground only, not sidewalks or public space - Typical hours: Saturdays 10–16, Sundays 11–16 (Munich also runs selected Friday evenings with M-net sponsorship) - No food sales; private sellers only, professional dealers are not welcome - Registration closes three weeks before each date for tour-plan marking; late sign-ups are accepted but may not appear on the map - Organisers may cancel a date if fewer than 30 courtyards register, fees are then refunded About Hofflohmärkte Neighbours register a private Hof, Garten, or Garage on Hofflohmärkte and sell used goods on scheduled Viertel days. Registered addresses appear on a tour plan published about one week before each date. Sales happen on private ground only. See city pages for local schedules and Spielregeln & Tipps for seller rules. Why it matters Every item re-homed from a courtyard is one less thing bought new or landfilled, and a chance to meet the people who live behind the front doors.

Organise a community seed library and annual seed in Munich

Organise a community seed library and annual seed in Munich The Solawi network seed sovereignty pages promote community seed libraries: labelled jars, simple borrowing rules, and an annual swap where growers trade what saved true in their soil in Munich. What you can do - Read the Saatgut (seed) resources and pick varieties suited to Munich's climate - Host a winter swap at a library or community centre with variety notes and sowing tips - Link your library to a Solawi farm so field trials feed back into the catalogue How it works Stewards catalogue donations, check germination, and enforce "grow, save, return" rules. Swaps stay small and neighbourly so beginners leave with something they can actually sow in spring. Why it matters Community seed stocks protect diversity industrial catalogues skip and keep adaptation local.
