The Birth Tree Garden was created in the summer of 2013 as part of the "Nature conservation ideas wanted for Eberbach" campaign, based on an idea by Jula and Justus Grüber. The NABU project is funded by the Neckartal Odenwald Nature Park, and FALTER Fruchtsaft from Heddesbach donated five high-stem fruit trees of old varieties for the birth tree garden.

-----------------------
And if I knew that the world would end tomorrow, I would still plant my apple tree today.” This quote from Martin Luther adorns the wooden information board in the Birth Tree Garden
-----------------------

It is an old custom to plant a tree after the birth of a child. With the Birth Tree Garden project, parents from Eberbach can plant a fruit tree for their newborn child on NABU's meadow orchard property.

The tree and tree care are a gift from the Eberbach Nature Conservation Union. The tree symbolism represents the wish to let the child grow up in a healthy and green world. The special thing about the tree planting is that the meadow orchard grows and thrives when the children are born.

The meadow orchard landscape on the Eberbacher Breitenstein is preserved through the planting of old high-stem fruit varieties and their care. Tradition and nature conservation in one and - for a tree life - rooted in Eberbach.
