Description

Microforests, also known as tiny forests or Miyawaki forests, are dense, native woodlands planted in small urban spaces. These fast-growing, biodiverse ecosystems have a significant impact on local climate. In addition to cooling, microforests sequester carbon at a higher rate than conventional forests due to their high planting density and rapid growth. This helps remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. They also improve air quality by filtering pollutants, and their dense root systems help manage stormwater runoff, reducing the strain on urban drainage systems during heavy rain. 

Join us to explore how these compact green spaces can make a huge difference in creating cooler, healthier, and more resilient communities. Don't miss this chance to discover the power of planting small!
