“At Viborg GK, the environmental impact of the club and its activities has been a focus area since the mid-1990s. Since receiving its first GEO certification, the greenkeeper and club representatives have continuously worked on various projects on the course and within the facilities, always with a strong awareness of their environmental implications. The results are impressive and serve as an excellent example of what can be achieved within a golf club, maintaining high-standard playing areas and facilities while also reducing environmental impact. The greenkeeper’s commitment to understanding wildlife ecology and using poison-free methods to protect the playing areas, while simultaneously supporting conditions for specific species is beneficial to everyone.”
