ÉrdKöVE

ÉrdKöVE is a sustainability-focused community group in Érd, Hungary, that actively promotes environmentally conscious living through educational events. Together with the Érdi Kertbarát Kör and Biocentrum, they organize the 'Nyitott kertek – nyitott emberek' program, a free but registration-required event where participants visit eight unique local gardens. During these visits, garden owners share firsthand knowledge on adapting to climate change, increasing biodiversity, conserving water, and gardening without chemicals. Attendees receive practical tips on rainwater collection, herb planting, mulching, biological pest control, and permaculture. The event is part of the international Urbio Bauhaus project, and by offering multiple time slots, it allows participants to explore several gardens. Through this initiative, ÉrdKöVE demonstrates its commitment to environmental education and community engagement in sustainability.
