May Day in Pottery Village
The first weekend of May in the Pottery Village in Kamionka was full of attractions. Horticultural exhibition – floral arrangements in the Rowan amphitheatre, by the Gardener’s Cottage and Eco-Shop, in front of the “Bird radio” tavern, in front of the pottery workshop and next to “Niezapominajka”. Paradise Garden welcomed its visitors with phloxes as well as with tulip, narcissus and grape hyacinth flowers. Plum, cherry and pear trees blossomed in the orchard. The visitors were also welcomed by the scent of bird cherry. In the apitherapy room, the visitors could take healthful inhalations of ”apian air”.
On May 2nd, Pottery Village held a seminar on biodiversity, during which two representatives of the University of Warmia and Mazury: dr Stanisław Czachorowski -Biology and Biotechnology Department professor and Zofia Wojciechowska (Horticultural Therapy Institute) took the floor. Krzysztof Margol informed the assembled audience about biodiversity in Paradise Garden and about the main objectives of the “NATURE LABORATORY” project.
On that day, another educational building – NATURE CINEMA – was opened, where 3D nature movies will be projected. NATURE CINEMA cordially invites school and kindergarten groups for free screenings.
In the afternoon, Krystyna Świątecka and Band gave a wonderful concert in the Rowan amphitheatre.
During the weekend, children and teenagers had many opportunities to have fun while participating in workshops and competitions. The children could make their own toys out of hay, prepare ecologic soap of their own floral and herbal formula, solve nature-related riddles in Niezapominajka and at the Nidzica Forest Inspectorate stand.
The May events were organized as part of the NATURE LABORATORY project financed by National Environment Protection and Water Management Fund with EEA funds. We cordially invite to another event connected with the project: „Bio-diversity – our life” conference that will take place on May, 20th in Pottery Village in Kamionka.
