Do you know the new forester in Lübeck? Open Försterei Day on July 5th!

Falkenhusener Weg 160, 23566 Lübeck, Deutschland - The forester's shop in Falkenhusen opens its doors

On Saturday, July 5, 2025, the Falkenhusen forester's house in Lübeck invites all interested parties to the "Open Försterei" from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. This special day offers the perfect opportunity to get to know the new district forester Annalena Joch and to learn more about the exciting work in the forest. Admission is free and registration is not required. With coffee and cake, guests can ask questions in a convivial atmosphere and take a look at the world of forestry. This day is organized by the Falkenhusen Falkenhusen Falkenhusen, which with its natural forest use profiled as a model project for climate protection, as hl-live.de

an ambitious goal

Annalena Joch not only committed itself to maintaining the forest, but has also set itself an ambitious goal: she plans to plant a million trees. In her new area, which is traditionally considered a male domain, she sets a strong sign of the role of women in forestry. Here she works with a prospective forestry who is at her side when striking wood. Joch also wants to prevent the construction of a high -voltage line through your forest and does everything possible to save the climate. Their commitment and vision stand for a new generation of promoters, as reported NDR.

women in the forest: a growing phenomenon

The proportion of women in forestry is traditionally low. In 2017, less than 10 percent of the forester in the old federal states were female in Germany, while it was at least 23 percent in the new federal states. But the trend changes: women are increasingly involved in this area and show that they have a good knack for ecological aspects. Studies show that female forest owners tend to act more environmentally conscious. This is in accordance with the recommendations of the United Nations, which emphasize the role of women in the preservation and sustainable use of biological diversity, as can be read on Treplanjects.com

together strong for the forest

The project of Annalena Joch not only aims at the trees, but also on dealing with the challenges of a strongly male -dominated industry. Despite the progress, women in forestry continue to fight traditional role models. Often they do not feel taken seriously by men and are faced with hurdles that make it difficult for them to take on an active role. One example is the educational horizon: With only about 16 percent female trainees in Baden-Württemberg, it turns out that there is still a lot to do.

The Falkenhusen forester's and her “Open Försterei” now offer a wonderful opportunity to raise awareness of the importance of the role of women in the forest. So, if you don't plan anything on Saturday, you should definitely come over and be inspired!
