a competition with tradition

The landscape gardener Cup Nord is part of a larger series of competitions that take place in various regions of Germany. There was already an event in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg in May, and similar competitions were also held in Berlin, Hesse and Thuringia. As can be seen on the website of the Association Landschaftsgärtner , the Rostock competition follows a number of exciting events that are distributed throughout Germany.

At the moment, around 130 trainees in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania are among the hopeful talents in horticulture. However, main juror Christian Jahnke found that it is becoming increasingly difficult in rural areas to find apprentices for the industry. The competition is therefore not only a shop window for creative garden ideas, but also an approach to promote interest in training positions.
