Beautification & gardening
Everyone likes to see beautiful flowers in their neighborhood. In addition to their aesthetic value, plants can also provide us with food and herbs, provide shade and cooling, reduce air pollution, and even attract important pollinator species!
Planting gardens offers great opportunities to beautify your neighborhood, learn about nature, socialize with your community, and have fun working outside and getting your hands dirty. We offer a number of services to distribute plants and facilitate garden projects to get you started.
