Urban gardening in Munich: climate change in the city – Munich

The green thumb came later. In the beginning there was dissatisfaction with the bicycles, which were constantly being peppered on the small green strip in front of their house on Palmstrasse. The area around the tree must have been a sad sight, not a bee in sight, just a few sparse blades of grass that had made their way through the hard earth. “I was so sorry. First and foremost, I wanted to give the insects a home,” says Anna Helidonis. And so in 2022 she became a green sponsor at the Munich environmental association Green City, which coordinates and supervises the voluntary planting of the “roadside greenery”, as the authorities call it in German, on behalf of the city of Munich. With a contract and plants sponsored by the city nursery for five square meters.
