A day D for me!! Pretty interesting talk with Susanne Eilers about environmental education and involvement of public into sustainability projects. I really appreciate that they have focused on working with public because it is a lifestyle of ordinary people which is mostly unsustainable and that should be changed. After that we had a nice but short walk around heath with the most colorful field I had ever seen (the one everybody took photo with). A flock of sheep reminded me on the same view I saw in Romania but it wasn't extraordinary and a shepherd was more common job there. For a lunch and to spend the afternoon we went to Baukhof, an organic biodynamic farm. First of all I have to praise the lunch which wasn't large but very tasty and nutritious, I believe healthy as well. During lunch with Eliska we had to sit to next table because the table for our group was not spacious enough but finally we were lucky because we sat at the table with farmers and all the people working there so we could smile at them and speak English with them. Later on we went with Ralf Weber for a round and saw part of production. At the same time there were also pupils from a high school on a kind of two weeks internship. And it is a good idea because children have to get somehow.

It is quite funny that the area of heath that is actually unnatural for this latitude is protected now. It is similar in UK were vast areas of moors are designated as a natural parks just because of special ecosystems which had been created by human activity. Than I wonder what exactly should be protected and what is the human task in nature.
 
For a lunch and to spend the afternoon we went to Baukhof, an organic biodynamic farm. First of all I have to praise the lunch which wasn't large but very tasty and nutritious, I believe healthy as well. During lunch with Eliska we had to sit at next table because the table for our group was not spacious enough but finally we were lucky because we sat with farmers and all the people working there so we could smile at them and speak little English with them. And I think that it was especially kind atmosphere during lunch which set up for my overall good feeling from the farm. Later on we went with Ralf Weber for a round and saw part of production. It higly interested me because it is one of my plans for future to live on or start such a farm. I also like the idea that the youth from a high school come here for a two weeks' "vacation" and, as I hope, improve their relationship toward nature.
 
The afternoon, evening and night were also great because we had a chance to go to city center before shops have closed. With a small group we were also introduced to some famous and popular students' places so we could look into other side of German students' life! Thank you guys that you opened the door.
