Jongens van de Klei supports bird research

There is nothing as beautiful as the sound of birds above a sunny potato field. Not only because of the singing, but especially because birds are extremely important for biodiversity.

"Birds are protectors of a healthy ecosystem"

Donation for bird research

Many organic growers have hedgerows or flower borders along their potato fields. Birds and predatory insects live in the hedgerows and eat insect pests such as caterpillars and lice.

That is why we donate to a bird protection initiative every year. A fixed amount from every package  Organic Jongens van de Klei goes to the chosen project.

 

Yellow wagtail

This year the money will go to the Dutch Foundation ‘Grauwe Kiekendief / Kenniscentrum Akkervogels’.

With this they will continue the research on the Yellow Wagtail. A bird that feels at home in potato fields and thus contributes in a natural way to combating all kinds of pest insects.
