A new Forest of Hope is being built in Sein\u00e4joki's Pappilankorpe, which combines the restoration of nature and well-being. Its central goal is to bring people together while respecting and protecting nature, while creating a place where everyone can enjoy the forest without barriers.<\/p>\n

Efforts are being made to restore the forest saved in the felling to a thicket with the help of the parish's own measures.<\/p>\n

The water level in Korve has started to rise due to the blocking of the drainage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

- During the felling, it was decided to save the carp, which is not a carp according to the Forest Act due to the drainage made in the early 90s, as a result of the drainage, the water level here has dropped by about half a meter. The original forest type can even be a forest bark beetle in accordance with the Nature Conservation Act, says a trustee of Sein\u00e4joki Parish Jouni Aila.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

By blocking the ditch, it became clear that there is a spring in the forest from which water rises into the forest. According to Aila, the restoration of the ear has already started well.<\/p>\n

- The ditch was blocked with an excavator in order to restore the water level, as a result of which the humidity has already started to rise. As a result of the removal of the drain, the spruces that grew in the fen will die, but hardwoods will grow in their place, restoring the area's natural diversity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As part of the project, a barrier-free shed, a toilet and a woodshed will be built in the Sein\u00e4joki parish forest. The area has also been planted with a grove of noble trees and a 120-meter-long cross made of iron birch, surrounded by a spruce nursery.<\/p>\n

- The purpose of the whole is that visitors can enjoy the restored cornice, cross and noble tree forest. It is planned to build long trees and a bridge around the spring found in the forest, which will lead to the resting place to be built.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Nature and environmental education can be organized in the area, for example nature clubs, and what carbon sequestration means in practice can be illustrated.<\/p>\n

- The purpose is also to use this as an educational site in climate change, carbon sequestration and how economic forest and nature management can go hand in hand.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The forest of hope combines the needs and wishes of many different groups. Participating in the cooperation are Etel\u00e4-Ostrobothnia Mett\u00e4lliset ry, Etel\u00e4-Ostrobothnia motorikelkalijat ry, Ylistaro Kainasto mets\u00e4stysseura ry, patrol flag associations of the area, Lakeuden El\u00e4mysliikunta ry and Sein\u00e4joki parish.<\/p>\n

This project shows that the parish, as a forest owner, bears responsibility for nature and its diversity. It creates a space where people can protect, learn and enjoy nature together. Toivo mets\u00e4 is a beautiful example of how by joining forces we can do significant things for the benefit of our environment. This forest is open to everyone and serves as a symbol of hope and shared responsibility.<\/p>\n
