Adopting the “right tree, right place” approach, the Nature Garden team has selected and cultivated suitable trees after considering the environmental and landscape characteristics, the micro-climate of the surroundings, and the landscape design. Upholding the principle of minimum human intervention, the garden’s management team avoids using chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and implements various natural measures to balance the biodiversity between plants and species, including choosing landscape plants with low maintenance cost and using mutual inhibition between pests to suppress their population. In addition, to promote the value of sustainable development for the next generation, the Ma Wan Park team launches the community planting scheme and organizes workshops to teach the public how the waste collected from Nature Garden is recycled into wood chips. The workshop will also show how to produce other useful material by mixing special food waste from the harvest restaurant with the recycled wood chips.
