The new volunteer video is online!
We once again took the time to film the lives and work of the many volunteers who are so energetic in helping us with all the work.
Get an exciting insight into the daily life of the volunteers in Sammatz.
Next Saturday (Sept. 14th) We will get a visit of a special kind again. Dr. Uwe Westphal will give three lectures on birdlife at the House of Nature.
In the first lecture you will learn which birds can live in the garden, which are their original habitats and what attracts them from nature into our gardens.
The second lecture deals with the bird habitat “Hedge”. What is the meaning of hedges? Who lives in them and how to plant and care for them properly?
In the evening you will be taken to the magical world of bird calls and bird communication.
163/5000
With many lifelike imitations and anecdotes from personal experiences Uwe Westphal conveys the basics of acoustic communication of birds.
02:30 – 04:00 pm: Garden birds & bird gardens
04:30 – 05:30 pm: Hedges as habitat for birds
07:00 – 08:00 pm: Magic of the bird sounds
Cost:
8,- € (6,- € reduced) each lecture
20,- € (15,- € reduced) three lectures

What a colour explosion!
Anyone visiting our dahlia garden in the near future will be able to admire the shapes and colours of the different species whose tubers are replaced each spring. At the moment they are in their most beautiful phase of flowering; a visit to the right of our ‘Arena’ is worthwhile!
the blue hour of romanticism
On 07.09. we want to conclude the concert year 2019 with a very special concert at the Waldsee. Sophie Heinrich on the violin and Paul Rivinius on the piano will enchant us on an unforgettable romantic duo evening with works by Clara and Robert Schumann, Brahms and Liszt.
