Yes, many trees are cut down on the Lemelerberg. But that is necessary, says Jan-Henk

From next week the chainsaws will rank again on the Lemelerberg. Normally needed, according to Jan-Henk Schutte from Landschap Overijssel: almost 90 percent of the original heath has already disappeared in the Netherlands. Now the last part of the 150 hectares of trees have to leave to save the popular purple flowers. That is already bearing fruit.
