Since 2013 rye seeds of the Berlin “Wall Rye” are grown in the context of the project „PeaceBread“ on an area of approx. 500 to 1,000 m2, respectively, on symbolic important locations in all eleven countries of Central and South-Eastern Europe that joined the European Union after 1989 (Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Rumania, Slovakia and Slovenia).

All twelve partner countries are united by the shared history of the long-standing separation of Europe and the exceptional experience of its overcoming. Many farmers and rural entrepreneurs showed a pragmatic and peaceful attitude during difficult times. Because of this they became a substantial base for the national and European identity and for peace.
