550,000 trees for Dresden - that's one for every Dresdener!
When.
Since 2019, we have been planting trees and shrubs in Dresden and the surrounding area every year in the fall and spring during the best planting season (usually in November and December as well as February) together with many volunteers.
How?
Monetary donations enable the purchase of the plants and the organization. The landowners provide us with the areas for the plantings voluntarily and free of charge. They commit themselves to leave the trees and shrubs standing and also take care of the future maintenance.
Why?
We plant native woody plants. We improve biodiversity and create habitats. For healthy air. For butterflies, wild bees and singing birds. For healthy coexistence. For a greener, more livable and healthier Dresden. And as a model for the rest of the world!

We plant on areas that the owners (city, churches, companies, schools and daycare centers, private property owners) make available to us for this purpose. We sign an agreement with the landowners. The areas remain the property of the previous owners, who undertake to allow the planted trees and bushes to grow in the long term.

Die Flächen bleiben im Eigentum der bisherigen Besitzer:innen, die sich verpflichten, die gepflanzten Bäume und Büsche langfristig wachsen zu lassen.We use 2-3 year old tree seedlings, which we purchase from a regional nursery. The seedlings cost an average of 90 cents. A total of 65% of the money goes to the planting material and costs associated with planting, such as soil preparation, planting tools, land acquisition, planting planning and maintenance concepts. Another 20% goes to ancillary planting costs, such as communication and marketing, accounting, administration and crowdfunding fees.
We will only be able to evaluate the exact cost distribution at the end of the campaign. These depend on the number of trees to be planted, support from citizens and organizations, the number of areas and the associated number of planting events. In the campaign we have integrated a buffer of 15% for contingencies. If there is any money left over from the campaign, we will use it for the care of the trees, environmental education projects in schools, conservation of existing trees or further plantings in Dresden - in line with the purpose of the Wilderness International Foundation.
