Get to work at the Nature Work Days in Haarlem

The annual Nationale Natuurwerkdagen will take place on November 6 and 7, offering over 550 volunteer opportunities across the country to support environmental conservation. Participants can engage in diverse tasks such as planting bulbs, pruning trees, and building insect hotels to help maintain the Dutch landscape. These events have been organized for 26 years by LandschappenNL in collaboration with regional organizations to encourage public participation in nature maintenance.

In the city of Haarlem, residents are invited to contribute their efforts on Saturday, November 7, from 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM at Laan van Parijs 166. Volunteers will focus on practical tasks like pruning trees and clearing blackberry bushes. Interested individuals can register online to participate in specific local projects. Additionally, those who wish to host their own conservation activity in the area may submit a proposal through the official website by the end of October, provided the project is safe and suitable for a group of at least six people.
