The association Pro Riet Rheintal and the Swiss Ornithological Institute are looking to generate more biodiversity in the Rhine Valley (Rheintal) urban area. The partnership-based, multi-year project includes a wide range of offerings such as advice on natural gardens, courses on natural gardening, talks and the conference Dialog Natur. The aim is to give rise to a movement promoting nature-oriented gardens in the Rhine Valley area, thereby providing new food sources and valuable habitats for insects, birds and small animals.

We show how gardens and green spaces become inviting for birds and where breeding grounds for birds can be created on buildings. We develop bird-friendly solutions for private individuals and municipalities and will be happy to advise you.
