Two weeks from now I won’t be sitting at my desk writing a blog post… I will have traveled across Southern Africa and will settling into a week of working in Zambia with Greenpop. Exciting times indeed. This past week our family joined the Greenpop team and helped to create an urban park, on what was a pile of rubble beside the highway at the start.
If you would like to see a video of the work GreenPop does in Zambia, then… here you go:
Otherwise here is a link to photos of the park we helped to plant earlier this week. It was fabulous fun day and I have a feeling my gang is sold on this kind of project… good physical work in the great outdoors greening our world, one small urban park at a time.
Creating A Park With GreenPop
Pick a spot…
Gather some plants…
Gather some people…
Add in some torrential rain…
And eager hands…
A lot of digging…
Crazy digging…
And even more digging…
And much more digging…
And clearing of stones…
And carefull unpacking…
And you might need a succulent wall…
And mulching…
Masses of mulch…
And a bonfire helps…
And good company…
Before you know it… a park is planted.
