Urban Forest Creation
Incredible pictures coming in from Kim Lake who are on site today at our first Soil Prep day at Gaelscoil an Chuilinn in Dublin 15.
🥇 This is the first stage of us creating an urban woodland, in six months time we will return to the site to plant over five hundred native trees and shrubs. 🌸
🤝 Great to see our impact partners Brennans Bakeries on site for a morning of corporate volunteering. Fantastic to have one of Ireland's most iconic brands getting stuck in and making a real impact on biodiversity loss and climate change! 🍞
🕸 This forest has been lead funded by Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Communities with special thanks to Joanne Reynolds, Brendan Cannon and Mark Craven for all your hard work to make this happen.
🐞 A big thank you also to all the individual volunteers who are giving up their time to make this happen, we cannot do it without you! You all looked great in your new visi-vests! 🏗
🎁 A big thank you also to ShoeRack for supplying us with Cardboard as part of the soil preparation methodology.
🎒 And a big shout out to the wonderful kids at Gaelscoil an Chuilinn for preparing all the card board on Friday to remove all plastics from it!

Akira Miyawaki is a renowned Japanese botanist and ecologist known for his pioneering work in forest restoration. Born in 1928, Miyawaki dedicated his life to studying and understanding the complex dynamics of natural ecosystems. His innovative approach to reforestation, known as the Miyawaki method, has gained international recognition. By focusing on the use of native species and dense planting techniques, Miyawaki's method allows new forests to grow rapidly and develop into self-sustaining ecosystems within decades, instead of centuries. His efforts in restoring degraded lands have helped combat climate change, conserve biodiversity, and promote sustainable development worldwide. Miyawaki's profound understanding of nature and his unwavering commitment to environmental conservation have made him an inspirational figure in the field of ecological restoration.
