Oplevelses- og Læringshaven med Biodiversitet, Kolding
Intimate urban biodiversity garden in Kolding, where wild planting, quiet corners and outdoor learning spaces turn a former grey pocket into a living green classroom.
Oplevelses- og Læringshaven med Biodiversitet i Kolding er en intimate, football‑pitch–sized urban garden, skabt som en grøn oase mellem boligblokke. Anlagt i 2022 af boligforeningen ALFABO og lokale samarbejdspartnere, fungerer den som udendørs klasselokale og inspirationshave for biodiversitet. Stier, små gangbroer, blomsterenge, insektvenlige bede, vand- og levesteder for dyr gør området ideelt til legende læring, naturstudier og stille pauser midt i byen.

Local tips
- Plan your visit for daylight hours to fully appreciate plant diversity, insect life and small habitat details that are harder to spot in low light.
- Bring a small notebook, field guide or nature ID app if you are visiting with children or students; the garden is ideal for simple species spotting.
- Wear shoes suitable for unpaved paths and possibly damp grass, especially after rain, as some areas are left deliberately wild.
- Keep to the paths and avoid trampling planted areas to protect delicate habitats created for insects, birds and small animals.
- If you are part of a larger educational group, coordinate timing with local partners in advance so you can use the space without crowding others.

En grøn lomme midt i boligområdet
Oplevelses- og Læringshaven med Biodiversitet ligger diskret indrammet af boligblokke i Kolding, som en grøn pause i bybilledet. Haven er omtrent på størrelse med en fodboldbane og er anlagt, så både mennesker og vilde arter kan trives side om side. I stedet for snorlige plæner møder du slyngende stier, små åbne pladser og frodige beplantninger, der bevidst får lov at vokse mere vildt end i en klassisk park. Her er ingen højlydte forlystelser; stemningen er rolig og nærværende. Fodtrin dæmpes af grus og græs, mens du bevæger dig mellem træer, urter og buske, der er valgt for deres værdi for insekter, fugle og smådyr. Det er et sted, hvor beboere kan tage en kort omvej på dagens tur og få en sanselig naturpause uden at forlade kvarteret.Biodiversitet som levende udstillingsvindue
Haven blev etableret i 2022 som en del af en lokal indsats for at fremme biodiversitet og skabe nye, grønne værdier i et tidligere udsat boligområde. I stedet for at fokusere på pynt er området tænkt som en inspirationshave, der viser, hvordan selv små grønne lommer kan understøtte et rigt dyre- og planteliv. Blomsterstriber tiltrækker bestøvende insekter, dødt ved får lov at ligge som levested for svampe og biller, og tætte krat giver skjul for fugle. Overalt fungerer elementerne som små, praktiske eksempler på, hvordan man kan indrette gårdrum, haver eller altankasser mere naturvenligt. Du kan gå tæt på og se, hvordan forskellige plantevalg giver nektar på forskellige tidspunkter af året, og hvordan vand, sten, græs og træ tilsammen skaber variation i både højde og struktur.Udendørs klasselokale og læringslaboratorium
Oplevelses- og Læringshaven er udviklet som et åbent læringsrum, hvor skoleklasser, dagtilbud og andre grupper kan rykke undervisningen udenfor. Her kan elever måle, tegne, undersøge og registrere arter direkte i felten, i stedet for kun at læse om dem i bøger. En sommerdag kan en bi på en blomst være udgangspunkt for en hel lektion om økosystemer og fødekæder. Haven lægger op til hands-on aktiviteter: at vende sten og se, hvad der gemmer sig under, studere blade med lup, eller følge vandets vej i små lavninger efter regn. For pædagoger og lærere fungerer stedet som et fleksibelt pædagogisk værktøj, hvor naturfag, billedkunst og bevægelse kan flettes sammen på tværs af fag.Hverdagsnatur for beboere og besøgende
Selv når der ikke foregår organiserede aktiviteter, har området en tydelig rolle som hverdagsnatur for de omkringliggende beboelser. Bænke og uformelle siddepladser giver mulighed for at sætte sig med en bog eller en kop kaffe, mens man lytter til fuglesang og vind i bladene. For børn bliver de små stier, gangforløb og gemmesteder til en naturlig scene for leg og nysgerrig udforskning. Haven indgår også i et bredere kommunalt fokus på grønne områder og bæredygtighed, hvor boligområder ikke kun ses som bygninger, men som levesteder for både mennesker og natur. Den viser, hvordan byudvikling kan inkludere små naturzoner, der er åbne og gratis at bruge i alle døgnets lyse timer.Et lokalt laboratorium for grøn omstilling
Bag bedene og de vilde hjørner ligger en fortælling om omdannelse og fornyelse. Haven er skabt i et kvarter, der tidligere var kendt som et udsat område, og fungerer nu som et konkret tegn på, at grøn omstilling også er social omstilling. Lokale beboere inddrages i pasning og udvikling, og med tiden kan nye ideer og projekter vokse ud af dette lille stykke jord. Som besøgende får du dermed mere end blot en hyggelig tur i det grønne. Du får indblik i, hvordan en boligforening, kommunen og lokale kræfter sammen kan bruge natur, læring og fællesskab som redskaber til at skabe et mere bæredygtigt byliv – i øjenhøjde og helt nede i græsset.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
