Spring has arrived: we planted 1,575 trees!
March 21 is International Day of Forests, celebrated worldwide since 2013 on the spring equinox, at the initiative of the UN. Its purpose is to raise awareness of the importance of trees and forests – oxygen production, climate protection, biodiversity – and to emphasize the importance of their protection.
What better way to celebrate this day than by planting trees?
BEREMEND – 850 TREES
On Saturday, we visited Beremend, where we planted 850 trees together with the Ördögkatlan Festival team. The Katlan Forest can now begin to grow, the source of which we created together last summer.
Good cheer is guaranteed at tree planting events, but it is not every day that a real brass band plays the tunes!
The Municipality of Beremend not only provided the location for the planting but also prepared the planting holes, organized the band, and treated the planters arriving at the site to a warm lunch! Thank you very much – it was truly a great help!
Beremend will always remain a dear place for us, as here, next to the Chapel of Reconciliation, we planted the 500,000th tree of the 10 Million Trees initiative.
Not a full year has passed, and we have already completed the 700,000th non-economic tree planting! Of course, we will not stop; we will continue, together with you!
NEW MIYAWAKI AT THE MARINA SHORE: 225 TREES & SHRUBS
In a similarly good atmosphere to Beremend, although without a brass band, we planted another Miyawaki mini-forest in Budapest. The planting was made possible by the community tree planting initiative of the XIII District Municipality, which won the National Tree Planting Day 2026 competition.
At the FOKA Bay, a Miyawaki mini-forest covering 75 square meters accommodates a total of 225 trees and shrubs.
The funding was jointly provided by GreenGo and its users:
they have been collecting for the support of tree plantings in Budapest for several years as part of the “Roll for Trees” program.
WOLF FOREST: 500 TREES!
On the 20th, we visited the Wolf Forest in the capital, where, under the professional guidance of FŐKERT and with the team from Realiscon Ltd., we planted 500 trees:
Three types of poplar, sessile oak, maple, wild pear, wild apple, and dogwood were on the planting list for Friday.
This is not our first visit to the Wolf Forest; we often return to this planting area.
The reason is simple:
“There is a sparse tree population in the habitat, mostly consisting of non-native species. The gradual replacement of these with native species is among the plans for the coming years.” Source: FŐKERT
These tree plantings are supported by 10 Million Trees and the volunteers and corporate team members who plant with us.
