To celebrate this day, we created a special bonsai tree with the help of the community. This collective work was made from recycled materials from other construction projects (pipes, coatings, wood, nets, etc.), as well as leftover wool and wool purchased by all the participants.
A total of 1390 pom-poms were made, which were carefully crafted over the course of several weeks.
On March 21st, with the collaboration of children and young people from the parish, a magnolia tree was planted in the front garden of the Canha Ethnographic Museum, symbolizing our commitment to nature.
The planting was accompanied by some senior residents of Santa Casa da Misericórdia, who also participated in this meaningful action. After the task, we had the privilege of welcoming the community involved in the project, as well as those who were able to attend.
Everyone found the bonsai an interesting piece of work, and many took the opportunity to take pictures next to it, celebrating the art and the environment.
Next, we held a community snack, the main objective of which was to share and promote healthy foods, strengthening the spirit of unity and care for our health and the planet.
The children took home a pom-pom, along with a small brochure that explained the importance of trees in the environment and in the lives of all beings that inhabit our planet.
