Urban greenery is a true connection between the local ecosystem (forest) and remnants of it (city park or some sort of a grow). It is also usually completely lost. Don’t know about you, but we are trying to restore even the slimmest possible link of a kind. Fragmented patches of lawns and trees, neglected parks, squares and concrete river banks are just some of them.

Just grow it!
Is there a way to green up our space once again?

Most definitely! And there are plenty of people outside this online-virtual world working on it. Slowly, one step at a time, with not necessarily so much money, but with careful planning and joint effort of science and practical experience – you can achieve it as well.
A small piece of nature in your hands, mind, and soul
Grow a green is intended for all the people who sincerely enjoy having a small piece of nature in their hands, mind, and soul.
For starters, just do your thing – contemplate, talk, read. Only THEN conclude and react. We are here to write about things we’ve experienced, learned, and (yes) taught about. Hopefully, we will manage to give you ideas, something to think about, or just make you smile and enjoy some distant green world via few paragraphs, photos and video reports.
So, buckle up, we’re gonna Grow a Green…
Genres and topics we are writing about, mostly consider urban greenery. How to grow and maintain all those prominent and hidden (usually fragile and damaged) ecosystems, and vice versa – how can humans benefit from them? Point is to enjoy these green thumb activities, yet to keep them simple, money-, energy- and time-efficient as much as you can. Meanwhile, we’ll give our best to indulge our readers’ imagination.

Ever felt the need to be surrounded by nature?
Wherever you live – we bet that at least once in your life you felt the need to physically have nature right where you’re at. Just a hint of forest, meadow, garden, waterfront… It doesn’t matter how you define it. It is individual, something that soothes you and fills you with energy at the same time. Even if it is just a potted ficus. Help to spread our green friends (hence – let them have sex), you will enrich your surrounding with fresh air, beauty, and serenity. Since you are reading this, we’ll assume that after all, you are some sort of a nature lover. And who knows? Maybe this could be a beginning of a beautiful reading?
