We are excited to share that the ambitious reforestation project “STI Greenwood Forest - We are planting the eXtra Forest” of our STI (Deutschland) GmbH team is really doing well !
Since STI Germany partnered with
Treemer® gGmbH beginning of 2022, we have witnessed an incredible transformation! The once bare and brown 7,200 square metres of land now shine with vibrant shades of green. It truly is a sight to behold ! The tree saplings are still small and delicate and it will take years for them to grow into magnificent trees. But we are thrilled that our German colleagues have taken the first step towards creating a stunning forest.
In spring, fir, evergreens, ancient sequoia and hybrid walnut were planted and the summer has gone quite well so far, as it has rained a few times. Cherries, walnut, black walnut, hybrid walnut, robinia, hackberry, aspen, larch, lime, for example, are thriving quite splendidly this year. The rain also means that the entire vegetation is blooming, which unfortunately also means that one can't see the small trees so well. But that is okay, because in addition to the small trees, various herbs are also growing, which are ideal for insects. After all, our project is not only about planting trees, we are building a haven for diverse species and nurturing an intricate web of life. Our mission goes beyond the mere act of reforestation; we are committed to rejuvenating the entire ecosystem and restoring its balance.
Despite all best efforts, the project faced a minor setback this season – a lack of rainfall in May. Unfortunately, a few trees, especially the firs, did not survive. Thanks to the Treemer team, everything is under control. They are ensuring the survival of the existing tree saplings and continue to plant new ones to fill the gaps.
