About Landschaftspflegeverein Thermenlinie-Wienerwald-Wiener Becken

The Landschaftspflegeverein Thermenlinie-Wienerwald-Wiener Becken looks after dry grasslands, meadows and other valuable natural areas between the Vienna Woods (Wienerwald) and the Vienna Basin. In the Baden district it works in places such as Pfaffstätten, Baden, Bad Vöslau, Tattendorf, Oberwaltersdorf, Traiskirchen, Leobersdorf, Enzesfeld-Lindabrunn, Ebreichsdorf and Reisenberg. It was founded in June 2017 and is based in Perchtoldsdorf.

What the association does

• Conservation work with volunteers: cutting back shrubs, hoeing and clearing, raking up mown grass, usually as a half-day session. Families with children, clubs and individuals can all take part.
• Schools and companies: nature programmes for school classes, work days for companies and advice on making company and municipal land more natural.
• New habitats: flower meadows with regional seed and flowering hedges on school grounds.

According to the association, it looks after around 1.5 million square metres of natural land in 46 municipalities.

Appeal for donations for the grazing sheep

In November 2026 the association is collecting for the sheep of shepherdess Christa Veits, which have been grazing natural areas in the region for years. After drought and summer heat her hay yield has collapsed by 85 per cent, and there is no winter feed for 200 of her 400 sheep.

• 200 euros: one sheep for the whole winter
• 100 euros: for half the winter
• 50 euros: for a quarter of the winter
