The New Forest is a long-term project launched in 2004. We show how it is possible to transform an almost lifeless spruce desert into a more diverse forest, which will gradually become a new forest again. Our goal is to create a place full of life, where 200-300 year old trees will grow, which are almost impossible to find in ordinary commercial forests. Positive changes on the purchased land can already be seen today. We currently want to expand the New Forest by another 4.6 hectares.
