Wild November: Lilienthal calls for the creation of garden corners!

In November, the climate and species protection group of the Lilienthal Community Foundation will bring a breath of fresh air to the region's gardens. The aim is to create wild garden corners that are not only beautiful to look at, but also make an important contribution to nature and climate protection. This is supported by the provision of instructions as well as materials such as leaves, branches and wood. These wilder retreats are intended to create habitats for hedgehogs, insects and amphibians, thereby promoting biological diversity. Weser courier reports that the community foundation is giving away special pallets as hibernation places for hedgehogs.

But how exactly do you best start creating a wild garden corner? This initiative gives valuable tips: You should leave perennial stems and leaves in the garden and create small piles of leaves as stepping stones for the local fauna. It is also important to avoid leaf vacuums and blowers so as not to disturb the habitats. Hedgehogs should only be fed if they weigh less than 500 grams or are weak. For the optimal location, we recommend a wind-protected, quiet corner in partial shade that is not over a hollow.

The construction of the wild garden corners

The construction of the basic framework is extremely simple. You start by stacking short branches crosswise, leaving one side open and then adding a dry layer of leaves that should be at least 2-3 cubic meters in size. Fine twigs or brushwood can help promote air circulation, while stronger branches provide protection. In order not to disturb the newly created piles from November to March, they should remain untouched until spring. Anyone who is interested can contact the email address klimaschutzgruppe@buergerstiftung-lilienthal.de to secure one of the pallets or to receive further information.

At a time when awareness of environmental and climate protection is constantly growing, this campaign is an excellent opportunity to get actively involved. The community foundation shows how you can use simple means to promote biodiversity and at the same time improve your own garden.

In a completely different context, the influence of Oscar Wilde, one of the most important writers of the Victorian era, on culture has not lost its relevance to this day. Wilde, born in Dublin in 1854, is valued for his keen observations and brilliant eloquence. Despite his social successes, including the well-known work The Picture of Dorian Gray, he had to overcome many challenges in his life. His fate was greatly influenced by his legal problems and the consequences of his lifestyle. His life's work and the way he stood up for the rights of the LGBTQ+ community prove that people like Wilde can have a lasting impact on our society. Wikipedia emphasizes that Wilde still holds great importance for his art and his beliefs today.
