Hearken, Mother Earth's voice resonates; Her children's footsteps echo, unite, In micro forests, tribute they create. Community bonds, in her honor, ignite. . In the city's rhythm, distant yet close, Car’s hum, music dances, sirens blend, El Sereno, Lincoln Heights, they compose. A symphony where nature, urban, mend. . Katherine's guidance, a clarion call, Hannya, Camilo, steer volunteers' might, On Ascot Hill, together, they commune, Listening, working, and reimagining; In your honor. . lsc . Ever heard of Micro-Forests? They’re vibrant, densely-planted urban gems that serve as self-sustaining ecosystems. They bridge gaps in our natural habitats and bring a burst of biodiversity right to our cities! . Interested in being part of the next Micro-Forest workday? Drop us a DM, or stay tuned to our posts for updates. We’d love to have you on board! . #MicroForest #NorthEastTrees #MotherEarth #AscotHillPark
