Retzer orchard: culinary discoveries in harmony with nature

A colorful and informative event took place on the Retz orchard meadow, which celebrated the end of the season. After two years in which the meadow is managed with the concept of permaculture, Caritas invited numerous visitors to experience nature together and enjoy delicious apple strudel. The bright sunshine and the good mood of the guests ensured an inviting atmosphere.

The visitors could not only snack on during the apple strudel enjoyment opening, but also learned a lot about the principles of permaculture. This sustainable agricultural method is based on natural cycles and aims to create a harmonious relationship between people and nature. according to Caritas regional manager Thomas Krottendorfer plays the conscious circular economy a crucial role, not only in agriculture, but also in the social and ecological field. He emphasized the importance of cooperation and how this event brought people closer to nature.

important insights into nature

Despite a sudden rain show, the lecture by herb pastor Benedikt Felsinger had to be moved to the interior. The endangered guests are impressed and inspired by nature: "We can perceive so much of nature - very often we can no longer succeed today," he started execution. He encouraged those present, simple plants such as Spitzwegerich and daisy and to learn from it to establish a deeper connection to the environment.

Through these events, Caritas creates a valuable meeting room on the Retz orchard, on which nature can not only be perceived but also enjoyed. The meadow managed with permaculture is not only a place of learning, but also a space to jointly develop solutions for a sustainable future. Preparations for the next year are already underway, while the meadow is collecting new strength for the coming season in the winter months.

This initiative not only promotes environmental education, but also offers a platform for the community to get together and exchange ideas. Caritas shows that the enjoyment of good food can be closely linked to a conscious and respectful handling of nature.
