This project was born from the conviction that, to conserve and recover biodiversity, it is essential to educate communities, and the best way to do this is through participation. The creation of a community garden seeks to generate a space where the community not only learns about local flora, fauna and vegetation, but also becomes directly involved in its care and recovery. Framed within sustainable development, it offers multiple benefits such as: experiential environmental education, a sense of community, physical and mental well-being, food security and sustainable and healthy eating, and a has multiplier effect by promoting its replication in homes.
