Crucial change in the Cloppenburg Forest: Forester Boyer is retired

Cloppenburg/Emstek/Ahlhorn -A new phase of life begins for Hermann Boyer, who is retired after 50 years as a forester. Mr. Boyer is a formative figure in the Cloppenburg region, especially for the forests that he has looked after for over four decades. These forests belong to the Ahlhorn forestry office of the Lower Saxony State Forestry and are the result of his passion and commitment to sustainable forestry.

a model in forestry

Hermann Boyer has been committed to a natural forestry since the beginning of his career. The oak and Douglasia apply special preference. He was aware of the challenge of establishing oaks on sandy soils, but he encouraged this tree with a lot of effort. "We cared for the oak with great care and today we harvest the wages with high quality stocks that are stable and resistant to the challenges of climate change," he explains.

establish a connection to nature

For Boyer, forest pedagogy was also of crucial importance. He always campaigned to inspire children early on for nature. "Our youth must learn to appreciate and preserve nature," he is convinced. This conviction was shaped in his own childhood when he planted trees during the holidays and developed great interest in nature.

sustainability and responsibility

Another central concern of Hermann Boyer was the stability of the Wald ecosystem. With the principle of the long -term forest, he made sure that thick wood and associated game management are available in order to obtain a healthy microclimate in the forest. "Nature demands us to listen and then act first," emphasizes Boyer, emphasizing the importance of a natural forest management.

a planned transition

accompanied by positive thoughts, Boyer is now retiring, while his successor Lukas Frese will continue his idea of sustainable forestry. "I have full confidence in Lukas. Forestry is a generation contract," he says about the future of the forests that are so important to him.

Hermann Boyer's contribution to forestry will certainly remain remarkable in the region. His commitment to beat a bridge between people and nature will shape the future generational understanding of the importance of the forests.
