Peipsiland community garden is one of the 50 local projects selected for support under the Communities for Climate initiative (C4C).
C4C projects focus on regenerating biodiversity, circular economies, renewable energy and water resource management. They also contribute to the European Union’s broader climate and environmental goals, aligned with its objective of becoming climate-neutral by 2050. Communities for Climate propose replicable and impactful climate solutions to inspire other local communities across the EU.
Together with Peipsimaa Museum our project focuses on preserve andpromote heritage plants . Together with a local community we are creating plant beds, where you can find Peipsi onions, chicory, turnips. Our project seeks to conserve local biodiversity and highlight the significance of traditional species. The community will be involved in cultivation and education, which will foster a deep connection to the region's natural and cultural heritage.
