Kimchi is the Korean version of fermented vegetables—traditionally napa cabbage and Korean radish—used as a source of vitamin C during winter. Unlike "classic" fermentation, Kimchi involves adding many finely chopped vegetables and spices to the main vegetables, especially ginger, garlic, and chili. By the way, the communal preparation of Kimchi is called Kimjang.

Vegetable gardening next to lecture halls? Why not! More and more universities have their own gardening projects. A neglected field of work and a handful of motivated people is all you need. The gardeners at Würzburg University's CampusGarten would like to share their experiences with you. You will receive tips and tricks to plan and implement a gardening project according to the principles of permaculture, and you are welcome to get to work yourself.

Food for the trash? No, thanks! We’re taking a stand against food waste. In cooperation with ÜberdenTellerrand and foodsharing Würzburg, we’ll be cooking delicious vegetarian and vegan recipes using rescued ingredients.

Repairing and sharing made easy! From 12 to 6 pm, we’re opening our doors to everyone who has something to repair or is looking for new clothes. The Omas for Future Würzburg and the Repair Café of CVJM Würzburg e.V. will be on hand to help you fix up clothing, bicycles, and electronic devices together. Don’t have anything to repair? No problem! Browse our clothing swap party for new favorite pieces and feel free to bring along clothes to exchange.

The WELTbewusst city tour focuses on globalization and sustainable consumption. Together with the Weltladen Würzburg, we question how our consumption habits are connected to ecological and social problems in other parts of the world, and how each individual can have a positive impact through conscious consumption. As we make our way through the city center, we follow the trail of everyday products and also present sustainable alternatives available in Würzburg.

What? How? Where? Insect Population decline?

In this workshop, you will learn about the current state of research on insect decline and the necessity of curbing it through a lecture.

Afterwards, under guidance, you will prepare three butterflies in such a way that they would be suitable for a museum exhibition. You can then take your specimens home with you as a keepsake.
