The Landschaftspflegeverband Freising e.V. and all participants cordially invite you to the Experience Day at the European Art Forum. It is offered again a multicolored program, approximately around the topic Streuobst (Meadow Orchard). Thus regional products, like e.g. sort-pure apple juices, regional Cidre, honey and much more besides, can be tasted and acquired at the farmer market. For those thirsty for knowledge, there will be interesting lectures, e.g. on the planting of meadow orchards and their care options.
In addition, there is again a program to experience for adults, such as scything and tree pruning courses. There will also be lots of fun for children: Horseback riding, crafts, face painting, storytelling and more. The adventure day takes place at the sheep farm and on its outdoor areas. In addition, there will be activities on the meadow orchard of the Schafhof, which will be opened to the public only for the orchard day. If you always wanted to know which fruit varieties grow in your garden, you have the opportunity this year to have your fruit varieties determined by a pomologist. It is important that you bring 4 ripe and preferably undamaged fruits per tree. We are looking forward to seeing you!
Parking places at the DEULA!
The Cafe Botanika will take care of your physical well-being.
