Another step forward proper water conditions on Gogolewko fen

Gogolewko is one of the new sites – added to the project in July last year when we signed an amendment to the grant agreement. Gogolewko is over 35 hectares of fen that have been under investigation and protected for years by the Club and the Pomeranian Landscape Park Complex, which is the legal owner of the site. The Park has been leading extensive grassland farming for years, mowing this area. By incorporating the fen into the project we planned to create a reserve here, develop a protection plan for it, remove trees and bushes, and rebuild the dams that maintain the proper hydration of the fen.

In the first step, we made cuttings in the area of 35 hectares. In the next, we plan to rebuild the dams system.
