Lokstadt Raised Beds
Raised beds for Lokstadt
Together for a greener, safer and more vibrant Lokstadt
With raised beds, we want to make Lokstadt even more liveable. The beds bring more greenery into public spaces, create places for neighbours to meet, and help calm traffic and improve safety.
To make this project a success, we’re looking for committed residents and local businesses who would like to get involved—either by contributing financially to the purchase or by taking care of a raised bed.
Join in!
As a first step, we’re collecting everyone who’s interested. If you can imagine helping design a raised bed, taking care of it, or supporting it financially, we’d be happy to receive your entry in the form below.
Together, we’ll create more greenery for Lokstadt!
