Microforest Comandante Júlio Ferraz Urban Park

Microforests are a natural tool for bringing more greenery into urban spaces. This is the 4th Microforest in the municipality. A methodology has been developed in which the strata of a natural forest are replicated in a small space inspired by the Miyawaki method. A wide variety of native plants adapted to the local climate (in this case Mediterranean species) are planted closer together than in a conventional plantation. The idea is to promote positive competition between them and faster growth.
