The Peace orchard (we are renewing from 2021) needs your support not only financially, but also your interest and help with awareness. We are creating the garden of the future for a pleasant stop not only for locals but also for nature lovers passing by. We want to offer a quiet space for rest and recharging energy. An orchard on a hill is a rarity in our region, and that is why we believe it will become a popular place to look around our otherwise vast and flat golden Polabí.
TREES
We have over 100 fruit trees planted and they are thriving!
Nevertheless, in addition to their subsequent care, it is also necessary to further improve the environment and cultivate the garden so that it is an oasis of peace and relaxation. This year we are waiting for educational cutting, pruning, modification of the rain pond, construction of a shelter and other works.
A wonderful view of the whole region is being created on the slope, we plan to plant grapes there. This project does not end with planting, and just like a garden, our bees also need constant care.
BEES
We are establishing beehives for the Peace orchard since 2021, which you can support throughout the year.
This spring, we will install beehives on the edge of the orchard away from the public so that the bees can pollinate our fruit trees.
Bees are extremely important to humanity, support us so that we can continue to engage in expensive beekeeping.

WATER
One of the goals of our project is water retention in the landscape. We managed to fill a rain pond from the sky, which will bloom in the spring with the planted aquatic flora and bring more animals to the orchard (frogs, water skippers and other insects we will plant fish).
The follow-up plan is to place an underground reservoir under the slope to collect rainwater and in the future to build its own well.

Water is a precious resource - contribute to building a self-sufficient green oasis that will benefit everyone! Any amount helps - thank you.
We get material help from subsidies, but sometimes we also need human resources and expert advice. Donate to us!
