A notice in the local paper caught my eye; perhaps some of you living in Bezirk Höfe (SZ) might be interested:

As part of their mission to promote biodiversity in the region, the Landschaftsentwicklungskonzept (LEK) Höfe is offering gratis native hedge plants to area residents. There are several types available. For more information, including how to order the plants, see here:

Plants have to be ordered by 31 August.
While this offer is for Höfe residents, people living elsewhere might look for a similar group in your area. There are many organizations doing similar good work to bring native species back into our landscapes.
