OHNE: River Cleanup

SAIL OR WALK

The very first OHNE River Cleanup on 24 March will bring together like-minded OHNE customers – whether you are from Aalst, Ghent, Nevele, Ternat, Zwalm or beyond – to contribute together to a more beautiful environment.

At OHNE, you shop packaging-free to avoid needless waste and pollution as much as possible with the OHNE River Cleanup, we go a step further (or back?) and literally roll up our sleeves!

‍The profit raised will go directly to DOKano vzw.

• 11AM – 1.30PM : BRUNCH (OPTIONAL)
  • Enjoy a table full of OHNE delicacies!
    Thanks to a lot of our blissful suppliers and the golden hands of T’alloor, we love to pamper you at the start of the day.
  • Join us on Sunday 24 March at the table at Bar Bricolage in Ghent and get to know the OHNE family better.
  • Attention: the number of places is limited!
  • Important: registering for the brunch is only possible in combination with the Cleanup. Bar Bricolage is located next to the starting point for the Cleanup.
  • Cost: 48 euros (Brunch + Cleanup) / Child ‑12 years: 15 euros (Brunch + Cleanup)
  • Our profit goes directly to DOKano vzw!

• 13:30 – 14:00 : INTRO & KICK-OFF CLEANUP
  • You’ll get a word in advance about dirt fishing, recycling, safe boating and the boating chart. That way we can all get on the water safely and smoothly.
  • Meet up at Houtdok (the Kapitein Zeppos Park) in Ghent.
  • Cost: 20 euros / Child ‑12 years: free
    Our profit goes directly to DOKano vzw!
• 14H-15H : BOATING, WALKING AND DIRT FISHING
  • We sail towards Portus Ganda as professional rubbish fishermen: fish as much rubbish out of the water as possible and try to catch the ​‘catch of the day’. Whoever catches the most original piece of rubbish will win a prize.‍
  • Canoeists have the chance to swap with walkers at Portus Ganda and vice versa.

• 15H-16H : BACK TO START
  • We will then sail back to Houtdok. After the canoe trip, our catch will be sorted and weighed. We are curious to see which records we will see broken today. Afterwards, it is of course time for our prize-giving ceremony.
  • The team that managed to collect the most waste per person will be rewarded with a ​“crate full of OHNE”: 100% filled with blissfully sustainable products, all plastic-free of course! The team that sorted the best and that with the most original find will also receive a nice prize.
