Description by the author

More and more cities and municipalities are planting birth forests. Every child born in a specific year receives a small birth tree in such a forest, and as the child grows, they can see 'their' tree grow. Thus, a birth forest symbolizes the desire that every child should be able to grow up in a healthy and green world.

The municipality of Oosterzele also committed to planting more trees and purchased two plots of about 30,000 square meters in Scheurbroek in 2009. The following year, the first small trees were planted in birth forest Lange Broucke.

In 2018, the forest was expanded by 27,000 square meters, and together with the parents of children born between 2013 and 2020, a remarkable 2,250 trees were planted in 2021. Thus, the birth forest is steadily becoming a large green lung in our municipality.

Meanwhile, the further development of the forest has begun, aiming to create an attractive play forest that includes various play elements such as climbing and crawling elements, willow tunnels, and a barefoot path. This way, the forest becomes an adventurous play area for children and a walking forest for the whole family.

The route can be obtained for free at the library (opening hours) or downloaded here.
