Volunteers removing weeds

Ten volunteers from HKUST participated in an exploration service hosted by Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden (KFBG). One of KFBG's educational objectives is to promote sustainability through waste reduction, emphasizing upcycling and recycling methods with various materials on their premises.

The program allows volunteers to remove harmful weeds from the garden and then repurpose them into shimekazari. This transformative experience encourages volunteers to think creatively about incorporating sustainable practices into their everyday lives.
