    VILNIUS TRANSFER STORY

    Gardening has wider impacts on the city that one would expect…

    Implementing community gardens can be highly beneficial for a city not only for environmental purposes but also for social ones: to fight social exclusion and bring neighbours together, at the same time for the organization of educational activities for children around the urban garden. This is what Vilnius has done while transferring the Good Practice of Rome, in ‘sleeping districts’, with training for gardeners and setting up adequate urban management schemes.
