New clusters and umbrella trees

Svartsundsskäret - can become your 'own' island for fishing and swimming.

500 000 SEK needs to be raised urgently in order to pay the final balance on Svartsundets old-growth forest .

Natural Heritage's income has been greatly reduced since the corona pandemic took full effect in March. VL Lo Jarl is on short-term leave and has been working 40% since May and will continue to do so for at least the rest of the year to reduce costs.

Contribute to the fundraising efforts to protect Svartsundets old-growth forest on Gräsö. We plan to pay the final payment by October so do not wait until Christmas with the gifts, they are needed now. The Christmas gifts go to the next forest. We need both many more forest godparents and donors of larger and smaller gifts. Corporate partnerships are very welcome. Think, for example, "positive imprint" when selling products.

On the new collection page for Svartsundets old-growth forest you can get your "own" 400 square meter hut in the middle of Svartsundet for the price tag of SEK 20,000 or a small rock in the reeds south of Svartsundsören of 200 square meters with beautiful singing reed warblers for SEK 10,000.

The map also shows umbrella trees in the deciduous forest on the northeastern shore of Svartsundets . An alder, an ash and a large spruce are waiting for their sponsors. Out on Svartsundsören, three old pines with armored bark give centuries of joy to those who want to be their protectors.

Both cobbles and umbrella trees are well documented in a table under the collection map at the bottom of the page. Click on the coordinates to go to google maps, click on the small image to see a large one, click on the text under the Title to order and an email will open where you fill in your details and click on the URL/Link at the end of the line to see a video of the area around the cobble/umbrella tree.

For those who want to leave a clear impression, we can set aside a special area, as we have done for Naturkompaniet with the SEK 850,000 we received from the Nature Bonus in 2018 and for the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's grant of SEK 500,000 that we received in 2019. We can mark our own areas for donations of SEK 50,000 or more.

For those who want to leave a mark in the form of forest plot of 100 square meters, these are located in the southern part of the forest, reasonably easy to reach. They cover both the spruce forest, the roadway and the alder swamp. Choose your squares, give away or honor someone's memory on this target. 1250 SEK per box. If you choose several adjacent to each other and attach a picture, it will be put together as a picture of all the squares. You will receive an automatically generated gift certificate with coordinates to the box as a pdf in an email.

Don't forget to use our beautiful new forestry shop on any special occasion or to thank someone for their efforts. You can also choose a memorial gift to honor someone's memory.
