Most people have never heard of a “Tiny Forest.”

But these dense mini-ecosystems are transforming communities around the world.

🌳 Cleaner air
🌧️ Less flooding
🐝 More biodiversity
🌎 Carbon capture
🧠 Reduced stress
🌿 Healthier neighborhoods

And they can fit into surprisingly small spaces.

On May 26, pioneering forest ecologist Dr. Marian Glenn will share how communities across the U.S. are using the Miyawaki Method to rapidly grow thriving native forests with outsized environmental impact.

This is one of the most hopeful and practical environmental ideas we’ve seen in years.
