Heesfelder Mühle variety garden

As part of the Oben an der Volme nature experience project, the creation of an orchard in the village of Halver Heesfeld was completed in 2020. The Heesfelder Mühle e.V. association created this last year as part of the LEADER project and planted a total of 80 fruit trees of different varieties. However, the regional variety garden only recently received the finishing touches with the installation of information boards and a forest sofa by the association.

The information boards not only provide interested visitors with lots of interesting facts about the orchard habitat, but also offer a legend with the locations of all the planted trees. To make it easier to find your way around the apple, cherry, plum and pear variety garden, a QR code has been created that visitors can scan with their smartphone to display the legend on their mobile device. This allows visitors to find their way around the variety garden and know which tree they are standing in front of. Further exciting information about the respective trees can be obtained by clicking on the variety name.

If you want to reflect on the literary fruit variety garden with poems in peace or simply take a relaxing break from your walk, you can now do so in complete relaxation on the new wooden forest sofa. The sofa invites you to linger at the edge of the variety garden with a great view of nature.
