Our Global Field in Berlin

Foto: Volker Gehrmann

If we were to divide the global surface of arable land by the number of people on the planet, we would each get 2000m². For more than 3 years we have been growing the global field in Berlin. On 2000m² we are planting a representation of the global situation of arable land.

In 2017, our 2000m² field was  part of the International Garden Exhibition (IGA) and the IGA-Campus for young people and children. Plenty of visitors, school classes and gardeners from all over the world came to see our field.

In 2018 we will move to the Botanischer Volkspark Blankenfelde-Pankow. We would be delighted if you came to visit us!

If you want to know more about the project and our Events on the field, just sign up for our Newsetter! (But only if you speak German)
