Bürgerstiftung Berlin – New project: Sustainable gardening with the Tomatenparade

Jan 5, 2025

Today is the day and we are announcing a new project. We’re staying with the Bürgerstiftung Berlin and getting close to nature again. “Tomatenparade” is the name of our new project.

The Tomatenparade project aims to impart knowledge and enthusiasm for sustainable gardening and ecological diversity in schools, daycare centers and other educational institutions. Tomatenparade is an educational approach to inspire enthusiasm for ecological relationships and sustainable gardening to raise awareness of the value of and respectful treatment of food to strengthen awareness of ecological responsibility in children and young people.

Hartmut Buchwald (1943-2025) was inventor of the Tomatenparade. Leo Deckbar from the Bürgerstiftung Berlin and I visited him in his garden before winter and talked about the new cooperation. Read more about the project and how the Diyi for Kids Foundation would like to support it here. The tomato season will start soon. We will keep you up to date.
