General tips for greening your garden
We want more greenery and fewer tiles in our city. This will keep our city cooler in the summer, reduce flooding because rainwater runs better into the ground, and provide more space for plants and animals.
This is why we are greening Zoetermeer more and more. You can also read this on the pages: Less tiles, more green in the city and Sustainable and green.
