Preserving, communicating and using natural resources in the central Weinviertel

,

In the North-Eastern region of Hollabrunn one can find rises in the landscape which cannot be used for agriculture anymore nowadays. Instead they function as habitat for numerous plant and animal species. Unfortunately these habitats are more and more turning into scrubland, grassland and wasteland. Therefore a cultivation (mowing, grazing etc.) compliant to conservation is required, if these natural resources in central Weinviertel should be preserved. These beauty spots of central Weinviertel are hardly known.

Edible Hollabrunn

, ,

This project is an attempt to raise the local residents’ awareness of regional and seasonal groceries and offers the chance to discuss the topic and deal with it in an active way. This way the urban space of living can put a focus on related educational and culinary related aspects. The process of growth and harvesting as well as taste and vitality become directly tangible. For this purpose various areas ranging from Hollabrunn’s main square to the Kellergassen are being cultivated and signposted.
