Sustainable Christmas joy: Each euro plants two trees in Tanzania

In the Rohrbach district, there is a special campaign that not only brings regional Christmas magic, but also supports an important environmental mission. The association "Upper Austrian Christmas Bauern" has been so freely related to the organization in order to make a green contribution to the reforestation in Tanzania.

Every euro that is donated as part of this Initiative has a double effect: two tree seedlings are planted in the Mara region in Tanzania for each donated euro. This campaign was launched in 2012 and has already led to more than 100,000 seedlings could contribute to reforestation.

stalls and fundraisers

In addition to this great way to support the environment, the Christmas tree sellers have played an important role. You will be encouraged to increase your prices to increase one euro or to set up donation boxes to donate the additional money to the organization. This not only makes it easy for buyers to make a contribution, but also increase awareness of the importance of afforestation worldwide.

The Christmas tree stands in the Rohrbach district are open from December 7th. In Rohrbach-Berg, the stand is located next to the Schweitzer wooden specialist market (Reintruber family). In Niederwaldkirchen, buyers can purchase Christmas trees from December 12th to 15th and December 19th and 23th at the courtyard of Christina and Leonhard Zauner (Uttendorf 2). In addition, from December 9th, Gerti’s flower shop in the center of Helfenberg is a sales stand for Christmas trees.

This cooperation and the support of the population not only promoted the local tradition of Christmas tree decorations, but also makes an important contribution to environmental protection. The increasing number of planted trees could not only improve the environment in Tanzania in the future, but also strengthen awareness of sustainable practices in the Rohrbach region. Responsible buyers therefore have the opportunity to do good when buying a Christmas tree and at the same time contribute a small part to reforest in Africa.

Another step to strengthen the connection between local traditions and global challenges is participation in this action. By acquiring their Christmas tree in this initiative, they become part of a profound change that has both local and international effects.
