Together in the garden
Gardeners without gardens from all corners of Bucharest, we’re starting the revitalization of the Museum of Maps’ garden, and we need you! 👨🏾🌾👩🏾🌾
During the first two weekends of November, join us for four planting and gardening workshops led by landscape architects.
What will we do?
🌿 Under the guidance of landscape architects Bogdan Mihalache from @a2c_asociatia and Antonia Ion from @acantiaunionconcept.ro, we’ll be cleaning, planting, and learning about:
🦔 Urban biodiversity and how it can be enhanced with specific plant species.
🌼 How to plant correctly, from flowers to herbs and easy-to-maintain vegetables.
🐛 Over the four sessions, we’ll cover the entire process of creating a healthy urban garden—from selecting the right plants and soil to the actual planting and garden maintenance.
🍐🌰 At the end of each workshop, we’ll gather on the museum terrace to chat, get to know each other, and of course, enjoy some food together.
