Purpose Statement: To increase awareness, promote usage, and make the Greenwich Forest Garden available as an educational resource for science and social justice.
The goal of this project is to increase awareness, promote usage, and make the Greenwich Forest Garden available as an educational resource for science and social justice. We think the Forest Garden could be more useful if it was better explained and better publicized. We will fix this, in the form of pamphlets, our blog, a revamping of the Forest Garden's website and Hampedia page, and maps. These can allow us to make it easier for people to hear about the garden, easier to find the garden, easier to learn about how to use the garden, and easier to find specific plants in the garden. We think this will make the garden more useful.

and it's got the url on the bottom for those of us who can't actually figure a qr tag out

Again, the idea of the graphic map is to give people an idea of 1, how much there actually is in the forest garden- there are a lot of paths in there! and 2, generally where the paths go. It also is supposed to pique your interest- it looks like a cool place to explore when you can see all the paths, but with little emphasis on accuracy or detail.
Should be cool.
