THE CULTURAL HERITAGE OF GARDENING
THINK GENEROUS, ACT PRUDENT THE HERITAGE APPROACH IN URBAN / REGIONAL PLANNING AND IBA 27 In 2018 I invented the expression heritage approach to the iba27 community. Background of it was this: 100 years after the presentation of the Weissenhof Siedlung at Stuttgart by Le Corbusier - listed as part of transboundary tangible UNESCO Cultural Heritage WORK OF LE CORBUSIER - iba27 shall take place in the Region of Stuttgart area. Again a new - this time post moderne - urban cultural claim shall come to be realized. That is the pointed out futures claim of iba27 ! The NEW, the post modern claim in these days of global connectiveness and vulnerability, possibly must be a both, generous and prudent, suggestion to the regional and global community. So, after the invention of an humble expression I follow up with that ambitious outview:
The heritage of traditional orchard landscapes is located next to you, particularely in the greater Region of Stuttgart. Here it is called Streuobstwiesen. This heritage still supplies healthy food, energetic and construction materials, occupation, income and social cultural identity, health- and bioservices in our highly industrialized region. It takes a unabtrusive but growing role of importance for the resilience of the regions human habitants and faunal/floral biodiversity - close to or even included by urban areas. Related landscapes with various leading species - historicaly connected with human civilisation at settlings, villages and cities - exist all over the world. Up to 1 500 billion human globaly still get livelyhood and social cultural identity by those orchard landscapes.
They are of outstanding universal value for mankind.
Therefore we started in 2014 to organize a global network to submit selected traditional orchard landscapes as transboundary UNESCO world heritage sites in the category Organic Cultural Landscapes / criterion V ( an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement, land-use, or sea-use which is representative of a culture (or cultures), or human interaction with the environment ) Learn more -The Global Orchard ( it is a facebook site ) - Freundeskreis Weltkulturerbe Streuobstlandschaften contributed by Peter, Nürtingen

Das Mörike - Projekt... A tiny contribution along the NÜRTINGER ENERGIETAGE 2019 gave the idea for a generation-spanning project in the concerns of iba27. Background : The MÖRIKE-SCHOOL NÜRTINGEN is a internationaly visited primary school in Nürtingen. There kids from approximately 40 nations are studying and do some practical exercises in crafts, creativity and social skills. Some pupils of the Mörike-Schule Nürtingen participated a 2 days upcycling activity. We have built a kind of vertical garden für the Mörike school garden. See the pictures nr.1 and nr. 9 at the Bildergalerie aside.
We intend to generate and spread out the City-Kids/Mörike - Projekt for the Region Stuttgart as a common and regular chance for kids social learning mainly around creative, biodiversity and constructional themes... for many of the activities the helping mind and hand of an adult person might be necessary . So the Mörike-Projekt shall be also a kind of a generation-connecting festival ontact 00491772521002
