Co-financed by the Greater Poland Voivodeship Government
We invite you to the granary at the heart of the Turew farmstead for the inaugural edition of the unique "ECO-ORGANICA" event, organized as part of the Organic Work Trail by the "Bonum adipisci" (Striving for Good) Foundation.
Schedule:
16:00 – An extraordinary Polish-Greek concert performed by the duo Tasos Fotiou (saxophone, electronic instruments) and Szymon Wójciński (piano, keyboards).
17:00 – A talk by Artur Golis titled "On the Importance of Mid-field Tree Belts."
Following the presentation, guests will take a walk along the tree belts in the Turew area. During this 45–60 minute excursion, there will be an opportunity to see firsthand how these green corridors blend with the agricultural landscape and influence biodiversity. The walk will be both a nature experience and a symbolic one; much like in the music of the Fotiou & Wójciński duo, different worlds meet here—humanity and nature, tradition and modernity.
To conclude, we will gather back at the granary for creative workshops, where participants can try their hand at identifying and classifying tree species based on their leaves. It is a perfect opportunity to expand one’s knowledge and ecological awareness through play and direct contact with nature.
In the meantime, refreshments—coffee and cake—will be available, and guests can explore materials regarding the Chłapowski family and the concept of mid-field tree belts.
