People, organisation & contact
The main objective of Farming for Nature is the integration of objectives and interests. Therefore the involvement and responsibility of many parties is essential.
That is why many people are (enthusiastically) involved with the Polder van Biesland pilot project.
There is an administrative steering group, a project group and the Rotary division of The Hague has taken the initiative for the establishment of the Friends of Biesland Foundation.
