A day that takes root. Are you in?

It’s just one week away: Our “Let’s Get to Work for Tomorrow’s Forest” event will take place on November 17. There are still spots available—join us!
On November 17, it’s time for us to step away from our daily routines and head into the forest! Together with Bergwaldprojekt e. V., we’ll be rolling up our sleeves in the Zonser Heide in Dormagen, planting native trees, and taking practical steps to ensure a resilient forest for tomorrow.
Why join us?

“I’m looking forward to a day of work that’s grandchild-friendly and to seeing, at the end of the day, what we’ve created together—with our own hands.”
Dr. Frank Tolsdorf, Business Director of the Dental Clinic and the Center for Mental Health and Psychotherapy (ZPP)

“My ‘why’ is very clear: I want to give not only the forest a future, but also myself and my children: Here we grow!”
Kesta Ludemann, Research Associate at the Center for Sustainable Business Management (ZNU)
