Bee Together has announced that it is joining natur&ëmwelt at their Fit by Nature event on Saturday 1 December from 09:00 to 13:00 to create more light for the rare plants in a disused gypsum quarry in the Hiewelbierg area near Erpeldange-lez-Bous. 

They need help to clear brush in order to create a dry grassland, and keep it open for orchids and other wild flowers. Hiewelbierg is an important site for the 36 species of orchid in Luxembourg and is one of the sites of the LIFE Orchids project.
