location urban gardens in the capital
THE SOLAR
In the spring of 2008 a group of neighbors decided to create a garden Lavapiés in the neighborhood, plant a green dot gray asphalt meantime, a bubble of oxygen between such pollution, a space of tranquility ...
The venue was a lot of Olive Street, where we are dedicated to dig through rubble to bring land, planting, watering ... and we have gradually transformed a vacant space in a garden. We brought the country to the city, accommodating nature between the bricks and cultivating our own food without pesticides or chemical fertilizers, is there anything better than that?
believe a city with green spaces and food!

COMMUNITY GARDEN OF PILUKA
In the summer of 2006 a group of neighbors begin the cleanup and conditioning of a small homeland, so far devoted to the accumulation of trash and spillway of a dog passing by. The enthusiasm and effort to create public spaces and participatory in the neighborhood, to improve the social fabric and ensure the quality of life has managed to reflect on this "community garden, built and maintained among all people who dare to approach. Where once there
dirt and dog excrement currently grow tomatoes, melissa, mint, sprouts, flowers ...
connection with nature has found a node from this jungle of brick. And we have ensured that the fruits of this garden give more than vegetables ...

JARDÍN MARAVILLAS
El proyecto Jardín de las Maravillas se desarrolla desde enero 2008 y gracias a sus dedicados miembros se está creando un jardín azotea urbano de hierbas aromáticas, hortalizas, flores, árboles, etc. en la azotea del Patio Maravillas. Nos reunimos los domingos por la tarde y nos turnamos para regar durante la semana. Estáis invitados a pasaros el domingo por la tarde a echarnos una mano y aprender o enseñarnos jardinería. Es todo un experimento y plantamos semillas, esquejes o plantas donadas para estudiar lo que funciona y no en una azotea madrileña.
Historia
Tras adquirir acceso a la azotea, fuimos pintando, estructurando gardening and collecting materials. Sunday we had a land in which we went to the BAH of pear trees to the ground and seeds. Since this land was not compatible with the conditions to sow in pots in full sun of Madrid, organized a fundraising lunch. With the success of the meal, we could invest in a super party in the cafeteria of the Courtyard, which not only fear we had live music, fire juggling Cuban mojitos, but we raised enough to continue the project. Thanks to all who have donated materials such as seeds, pots, plants, etc. the garden has reached its current state (and here I must say that is precious). Come see! Material Needed
still need clay pots, plants, soil and any donations of gardening is appreciated. We have a beautiful water lily, but it's gotten very ugly in a bucket. If someone finds a nice big container, like a bathtub, notify us and we ascended, but if you dare to upload it to the roof.
We meet on Sunday afternoons on the roof of Patio Maravillas

GRAMAHUERTO
Early
The Garden began in 2004 and 2005, thanks to ARBA (Association for the Recovery of Indigenous Forest), which gave us a spot in the hostel of the Casa de Campo. Then GRAMA (Action Group for the Environment) carried out a weed from the ground, old area of \u200b\u200bdebris that had been attempted cultivation. The harvest of the first year is regular, the second seeded beans to pay part of the land, and you get good crop of them, but other vegetables do not thrive at all.
The second year 2006-2007 season as a small group of people, and knowing more traditional varieties are cultivated land with the idea of \u200b\u200blearning how to collect seeds of various vegetables and help conservation regional varieties, seeds were provided by the entities of BAH (Under the Asphalt is the Huerta), IMIDRA (Madrid Institute for Agricultural Research) and the INIA (National Agricultural Research Institute). The harvest of sunflowers, tomatoes, gourds and carrots is good.
This year more people are coming together to help and learn from our garden, the harvest is very good looking ... Each year the facility is improving and the number of people who join the initiative. Objectives
The garden is a small school of gardeners, we learn continuously. Our idea is to continue this project in other areas and encourage the creation of other urban gardens in the city.
learn organic gardening, exchange experiences and materials with other gardeners in Madrid. The aim is to create a space where locals can come into contact with nature and learn how to farm without pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
We want to learn, teach and transform vacant lots in the center of Madrid, to create places to relax, healthy, productive ... We want to recover the "Isidro Labrador" that this city was invaded by the gray areas, private, absent of dialogue ... we want to facilitate communication and collaboration between citizens.
