This dream was to record a jazz album in the middle of a forest.". He didn't have sources to do so, so he created successfun crowdfunding campaign, where he collected $1 965 USD thanks to the support of 51 donators.
A bee tower for Torgau
The so-called Bee Pass Bee Tower comes from France. It offers the opportunity to bring the life and work of the bees as well as their ecological importance into the public eye. The bee-pass is a beehive to touch with a tour opening for the bees at 2.50 meters altitude. Unlike conventional bee houses, the bees can be observed through a sight glass at any time in their hive, without both sides being disturbed or a beekeeper having to be there. The campaign took 33 days to collect of 2.362,55 € thanks to 44 supporters.

A display board or a showcase for the orchard meadow is to open this for visitors and cyclists and inspire them for the preservation of this and many other orchards in the region. The campaign took a period from November 2015 to January 2016 (55 days) and its creator collected 1.283,00 € thanks to 24 donators.
