Our Gardens
Our Gardens is a hands-on summer workshop series designed to help you explore local biodiversity and sustainability through simple through simple, practical gardening activities.
As part of the BEEs project, this course invites participants to reconnect with nature, learn practical, biodiversity-friendly gardening techniques, and learn from each other through peer-sharing and observation. Together, we will reflect on our everyday environmental habits and exchange experience-based solutions that can be applied at home and in the community.
