  • The roof sheets are crafted from recycled tetra Pac drinking boxes, promoting waste reduction.

  • Rainwater is harvested from the roof into large tanks, enabling its use for watering the garden, promoting sustainable water practices.

  • Solar panels power all the garden's electrical needs, including pond pumps, fans, and lighting, harnessing clean and renewable energy.

  • Pre-loved furniture within the garden is carefully sourced and repaired, creating cozy seating and dining areas that foster sustainability and community spirit.​
