Whether backyards, balconies or allotment gardens: microhabitats are valuable for our native flora and fauna. Ecologically oriented initiatives and suppliers of balcony and garden plants present their projects and products on a marketplace of ideas, which provides impetus for a sustainably flourishing city.

Creating a green oasis is possible even in the middle of the city and even on the 6th floor. A biotope can attract numerous birds, busy wild bees as well as many other insects, proving that a near-natural area – even if it is only a few square meters – can contribute to biodiversity conservation. The ideas marketplace offers practical tips, from insect nesting aids to green roofs.
