Planting together

Andrea Seidl,Anneliese KnererandHelmut Jannkefrom the horticultural and local beautification association come with small shovels and plant pruners. Together with the participants, includingBetül Özdemir,Bruno SchelerandMartina Scheler, put the onions. Under the guidance ofAndrea SeidlEveryone will learn how to plant the bulbs optimally. They also learn about the benefits of spring bloomers for nature. The early bloomers serve as the first important source of food, especially for bees and many other insects.
