Past Events
Bantry Bay Urban Greening | 22 May 2022
As the clouds loomed over the ocean and up to Lion's Head, spirits were still sky high as we prepared to start our first ever Urban Greening Project, on International Day of Biological Diversity, 22 May 2022.
Gathered in the Queens Beach Parking lot, with piping hot coffee and pancakes from Coffee Jess & fresh juices and smoothies from Nourish'd we set up to plant the vacant flower bed.
The support from the local community, with friends family and kiddies in tow was amazing! We sold and planted all 90 plots to create a magical 176m² indigenous garden, filled with our favourite super plant Spekboom, wild garlic, an array of water wise succulents, African daisies, Vygies and Agapanthus which we can't wait to see in their full blue bloom!
Of course none of this would have been possible without our incredible partner Pam Golding Properties and all our sponsors Arboreta Nurseries, Reliance Compost, Leafy Space, Go Sublimation, Growing Paper and Store & More!
Keep an eye out to see where we'll green next!
