On Marc 11, 2020 the Municipality of Bátya organized a tree planting event, during which nearly 700 saplings were planted at the pilot site. On the planting event, the Ministry of Interior, the Association of Climate-Friendly Municipalities, the WWF World Wide Fund for Nature Hungary Foundation and the Municipality of Ruzsa also participated, supporting their project partner.
