Description
The funding program for the Stemweder Berg in Lower Saxony is aimed at non-profit organizations, public institutions, as well as private individuals engaged in the fields of environmental and nature conservation, agriculture, and rural development. With continuously available grants, the Nature Conservation Foundation in the Diepholz district supports targeted measures such as land acquisition, new forest plantings, and the natural design of forest edges and hedgerows. Furthermore, the program promotes the maintenance and establishment of historic orchards as well as the creation of specialized areas for the preservation of native arable wild herbs. Due to the diverse soil conditions in Germany’s northernmost low mountain range, a vibrant mosaic of rare plant and animal species emerges – a central concern of this funding offer.
The initiative’s goal is the long-term safeguarding and further development of the natural spatial diversity at the Stemweder Berg. Participating stakeholders benefit from an eligible range of ecological projects that preserve the unique cultural landscape and create new habitats. Whether biotope development on sandy dry sites or calcareous grasslands on more fertile soils – the provided support enables practical concepts for biodiversity promotion. Applications can be submitted at any time to make valuable contributions to the preservation of this characteristic low mountain landscape.
