Environmental education

Outdoor school - come and see our school with your school class. Our nature teaching course garden has various slates regarding "herbs and wood". We help you to impart knowledge about the life in a pond, the recycling process, the fruit garden, the stone garden, the hedge and the insects' hotel. Many comfortabel ways lead through the area, beds were marked off and a little pond invites you to a rest. Upon request you can get a guided tour here. In a test of their knowledge the participants can receive a "trial-diploma". Costs per participant: minimum 2.- EUR

We offer guided tours from April to October:
Monday to Friday: 8.30 till 3 p.m.
If you wish guided tours for groups apart from these times please call:

Days for environmental projects can be supported or organized by us. In a common excursion into nature the participants learn a lot of the protected areas in the Vogtland and the concerns of environmentalists and biological gardeners. 
We also offer courses for making nisting helps for insects – the insects' hotel or making little gifts. Here children can be creative and show their talents. Costs per participant 2,00 EUR (minimum) depending on the material needed.
A hot meal for school children is obtainable for 2,50 EUR per child (including a drink).
Courses can be held outdoor or indoor – if there is bad weather – in the modernly equipped classroom on the second floor. There is space for 25 – 45 participants. Screen, flipchart and white board are already available. Beamer, polylux and slide projector can be organized upon request. Rent for schools EUR 10.- lump sum.
