Bart has a comprehensive vision of his plots, with the ambition to create kilometers of hedges in Bonsin (Somme-Leuze). His goal is to strengthen biodiversity by connecting the hedges to the woodlands and to the alignments existing, thus allowing species to move from one environment to another.

Hedge planted in 2024

For 2025, we are doing it again!

During our meeting in 2024, Bart impressed us with his ambition to plant kilometers of hedges. In 2024, he planted nearly 2 km of hedges around the perimeter of his plots. We wish to continue the project with a 380-meter stretch of single-row native hedge.
