Nature's hibernation is over and not only buds are blossoming into new life - people are bustling about on the streets and in the gardens. The Museum für Naturkunde invites all spring enthusiasts to the spring festival with seed and plant exchange on April 12, 2025 from 13:00 to 17:00.
Young and old can let off steam creatively with spring and Easter crafts: Sorbian Easter eggs, Easter nests and seed cards are on the agenda. Little detectives will get their money's worth on the "Who hides what?" treasure hunt through the permanent exhibition. The brave can get up close and personal with insects. The ASR of the city of Chemnitz also invites visitors to experiment. At its compost station, the focus is on waste recycling. Agrargenossenschaft Lößnitz-Stollberg eG offers honey and interesting facts about bees. The city library with its mobile book lending service will inspire visitors to create their own gardening projects.
Home, small and flower pot gardeners are invited to bring seeds and plants to exchange and thus preserve the natural green diversity. Anyone wishing to offer larger quantities can register for a swap table with Anne Förster (Tel.: 0371 488-4555, e-mail: foerster@naturkunde-chemnitz.de).
In his presentation "The challenge of climate change - consequences for honey bees and beekeeping" at 3 p.m., Yves Krone will discuss the special challenges facing bees and beekeepers as a result of the changing climate.
We look forward to a creative afternoon and an inspiring exchange about horticultural successes!
