Urban/Rooftop gardens

Our projects range from small porch and backyard plots to expansive urban and rooftop gardens. Ecocycling has a dedicated team of designers, landscapers and volunteers who work together in order to develop lush and beautiful green spaces. We have learned that by providing a natural, green and sustainable environment for future generations communities can be unified and strengthened.
Our team makes sure to include important features such as rainwater collection, renewable energy sources, recycled materials and much more into our designs. We are able to provide environmentally friendly spaces while allowing for the best possible use of all resources. If you would like to join the effort, get more information or would like to utilize our services please contact us at volunteer@ecocycling.com.
