I disagree with the spelling of "fieldflowers" but "wildflowers" may be a better translation.
disagree Evert DELOOF-SYS : One for All is the name of an association

agree Shayna Barby (X) : I agree with Ineke, wildflowers is a better translation. Is 'Ieder Voor Allen' perhaps a brand name? Hence upper case.

Every man for all, sow wildflowers for peace and solidarity

I think we are making efforts to translate something that I suspect is someone's quote originally in English! I tried doing a search, but no luck! Perhaps the 1st WW, poppies????
