On November 28th, 2023 Vocational College of Hospitality and Tourism Maribor (VSGT) organized ˝Green walk˝ that was held within the activites of the ForestWell Project. With the help of Horticultural society of Maribor two activites were taking part on two different locations, one in Botanical garden in Pivola, near Maribor, and another in the city center. The event was organized for students of Wellness programme, invited guests and media.
On Slomškov square in the city center, tree-friendly nameplates were placed on eight different tree species that grow there. The plates are the same as already existing ones in Maribor's city park and are non-invasive to trees and their growth. Mr Borut Ambrožič from the Horticultural society of Maribor also took the students and guests on a guided tour of all eight species, as well as on a tour of exceptional trees that grow near Maribor's city center. In between, in Botanical garden in Pivola, fifteen trees were planted and a tour around the garden was made. We concluded the day together with watching the film about exceptional trees in Maribor.
