This garden, which is part of CIGL Esch's "Edible City" project, turns the "Op der Leier" neighbourhood into a small oasis of biodiversity, creating a place to meet, exchange and learn.
Thanks to the local residents, educators and young people from the Formida centre, who are regularly on site and maintain the garden together with CIGL Esch, the garden creates connections and improves relationships between people of different ages, cultures and backgrounds.
