Map
Last year, during the Ördögkatlan, we planted the half-millionth tree of the 10 Million Trees initiative near the Chapel of Reconciliation. This year, we are returning to Beremend: to play in the mud, to water, to dance in the rain, to chat, to watch films in the barn, to present books, and to think about trees, water, shade, and a more livable world.
We welcome you to Beremend, at the Lion House, across from the Blacksmith Workshop, in the Green Cauldron, together with the Jane Goodall Institute, the Bird Conservation Association Baranya County Group, and the My Life in Africa Foundation.
We will have:
🌱 a mud playhouse every morning, where little humans can educate tree saplings,
💧 rain dance and watering in the Cauldron Grove in the sculpture park, with cold MONYO drinks,
💦 discussions and presentations on urban and home water retention,
🐒 programs, booths, games, and quizzes from the Jane Goodall Institute and MME,
📚 Kállai Márton: Matuzsálemek mini-exhibition and book fair,
📖 Bojár Iván András book presentation: The Flooding of the Tisza,
🌳 Miyawaki mini-forest day on Thursday,
🎬 barn cinema with green films about water, landscapes, and living systems.
