Governments and organizations are looking to create greener cities that incorporate healthy environments for a broad range of species beyond humans. Official Community Plans (OCP) are being developed to create communities that are more accountable in the products we use, the plant material we seed and increasing tree canopies.
Research is also providing strong evidence of the positive role green spaces play in our overall health and well-being in a thriving community. Plants can decrease crime, encourage connections in plant outreach programs, provide us with a sense of wonder and some good old fresh air while being visually pleasing.
SUSTAINABLE LANDSCAPES:
Edible gardens are currently having a greater influence in land use and there are many simple ways to incorporate this into an existing garden, even on a balcony or terrace. We can advise on how to increase productivity for home gardeners or recommend qualified garden management experts to tend your edibles.
With a site visit, we can discuss how these considerations can be incorporated into your landscape and aid in creating healthy communities.
