Old Building

The building is in very poor condition, there are cracks in the walls, it is not insulated and there is asbestos on the roof that needs to be removed. The association has grown considerably in recent years and the association building is literally and figuratively bursting at the seams. One toilet for about 250 members (with family) is really too little.

Renovating the existing building is many times more expensive than placing a new building.

New Building

We would like to build a new energy-efficient shed and provide a good interior.

Despite the fact that we have saved a lot in recent years, we still have to bridge a considerable gap.

The Goal

With The New Building

Get together
At the garden association, members regularly come together to enjoy each other's company amidst the lush green oasis. The gardens, each a personal paradise, reflect the diversity and creativity of the members. The atmosphere is always relaxed and welcoming, with a love for gardening and nature at the center.
Give workshops
In the new building, passionate garden lovers come together to share their love for plants and greenery. Giving workshops within such a community can be an enriching experience, both for the workshop leader and for the participants
Activities for children
With the new building, various fun and educational activities can be organized for children. These activities can help increase their interest in gardening, nature conservation, and outdoor life.
Education for schools
Organizing educational activities for schools at a garden association is a valuable initiative that not only offers educational benefits, but also increases community involvement.
Consultations and meetings
During the meeting, not only plants and flowers are discussed, but also events and initiatives that connect the garden association with the wider community.
Exchange
The exchange of gardening traditions, knowledge about specific crops, and the meaning of certain plants in different cultures enriches the experience of gardening. It goes beyond just growing food; it's about cultivating understanding, respect, and friendships across borders.
