Earthwatch Europe

🍎 Hendon’s first Tiny Orchard is here! 🌳 On December 17th, Hendon welcomed London’s first Tiny Orchard, a vibrant community space created by FUNKIN COCKTAILS | B Corp™, Earthwatch Europe, The Orchard Project, and Barnet Council, with incredible support from the local community. 🌿✨ This Tiny Orchard is more than just fruit trees—it's a hub for nature, learning, and connection. It will: - Grow food and foster new wildlife habitats - Help tackle climate change with a climate-resilient mix of species - Provide a green, healthy space for everyone to enjoy - Part of Earthwatch's Nature in Cities initiative, this orchard is proof that even small actions can make a big difference. 👏 Huge thanks to all who contributed to this inspiring project!

🌱🤝 This World Soil Health day we're celebrating our partnership with Tate & Lyle and Nanjing Agricultural University which has been supporting stevia growers since 2019 to reduce their environmental impact and gain greater economic benefit from production of this in-demand sweetener. Healthy soils play a key role in maintaining biodiversity, improving water quality, and building resilient and sustainable food systems. Learn more about the success of the sustainable stevia programme in Eastern China in a new video from Tate & Lyle: https://lnkd.in/egzF34kp Our input in this partnership forms part of our Farming with Nature programme, which equips farmers and agribusinesses with citizen science tools to collaboratively build robust datasets and drive positive changes in agricultural practices 🚜 Find out more about our Farming with Nature approach in our recently published white paper: https://lnkd.in/e7xSrmci #WorldSoilDay #FarmingWithNature #RegenerativeAgriculture #CitizenSciece

“As rowers, we’re out all hours on rivers like this [the River Cam], and we get to care about them. Almost every single sample we’ve had from the River Cam has been bad or very bad water quality. It has been quite eye-opening for us as river users."    💧🧪 #FreshWaterWatch is our global movement of volunteers who test their local water quality and help us build a picture of freshwater health across the UK.    🙏 Thank you to Susannah Cass, Programme Manager of East Anglia Youth Rowing, and their young people for joining the fight for healthy fresh water!    💙 Double the hope for our rivers by supporting us in the Big Give #ChristmasChallenge this week.

🌳🎁 This #NationalTreeWeek, get a head start on your Secret Santa or Christmas shopping by giving a gift that gives back! 84% of the UK population now live in urban areas, and around 1 in 3 people in the UK don’t have access to nature-rich spaces near their homes, with some of the most deprived areas having no natural green space. By sponsoring an urban tree, you will help fund our network of Tiny Forests across the UK, benefitting people and wildlife in urban areas. Simply choose the tree species and number of trees you would like to sponsor and you will receive a personalised certificate. Choose your tree(s) here 🌿👉 https://lnkd.in/ex84ArzP   If you are part of an organisation that is interested in gifting 20 trees or more to your employees, get in touch: https://lnkd.in/eXr3wC84 #ChampionATree #AlternativeGifts #SustainableGifts #PersonalisedGifts #NatureInCities #TinyForest
