Join our hostel's tree-planting project
The experience
I want to green the entire hostel with trees, install climbing plants in some areas, hanging plants, and potted plants on the floor.
I also need to set up a vegetable garden for the local kitchen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I already have space for a vertical garden and I've set up a space to support the hostel's plants.
Here we can work on something together.

Program Details
I need someone with knowledge about different plant species and the best places to distribute them, where they will adapt best. I need you to document the necessary care for each plant and how often the tasks should be carried out.
Activities & Shift
The volunteer should set aside a continuous block of time, which can be in the afternoon or in the morning, whichever we agree on beforehand, and during this time we will plan the purchases of supplies and seedling models. I intend to actively participate together with the person to understand a bit about the subject and thus continue the gardening maintenance.

Leaving and returning late at night is not allowed, nor bringing guests. Sexual relationships with guests inside the hostel premises are not allowed. Smoking is not allowed inside the rooms, bathrooms and kitchens. Interfering with the hostel's routine as well as with the tasks of internal staff is not allowed.
