[FESTIVAL] What if we all planted a tree in our garden? As a host how do you act for sustainability?

This year, a fantastic community Leader came to visit us at our home in Carcassonne, France.

We became friends thanks to the Olympic Games, an extraordinary opportunity to bring people together, and we've been trying to stay in touch ever since.

We were able to show them the Mediterranean garden we created with my children. It's an area on the property where we've planted plants typical of our region that require very little water : lavender, thyme, rosemary, olive tree, and almond tree. We were also able to purchase a water collector and grow aromatic herbs for everyone to use (mint, parsley, chives, etc.).

With his wife, who takes great care of nature, they offered us a tree. @Till-and-Jutta0 had thought of everything: soil, tools, and gloves so we could share this activity. We planted it in the garden together with my son—a GREAT MOMENT rooted in sustainability. This surprise was made with the aim of giving roots to our Friendship. It's a Callistemon (bottlebrush in French), and it's already very popular with butterflies and our guests!

Our village has already experienced flooding, the land needs to regain green spaces, we are trying to contribute to this at home. Year after year, we learn and share the right actions: Every little detail counts, we enrich the earth with our food leftovers and our coffee pods, and you?

Well, our friendship will grow, and this tree will offer its resources to passing bees. This is our collective contribution to the Earth and sustainability.

Finally, gardening is also a good way to raise awareness among our guests, moreover we have interesting discussions.

What if we all planted a tree for a better future, that of Fraternity with Airbnb?

@Laëtitia-Stephy0 Sometimes, tree planting isn't a success.
