- **Event Description**: Pocket forests are a worldwide trend used to quickly restore damaged ecosystems. Developed by Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki, pocket forests are created by densely planting native trees, shrubs, and vegetation over a relatively small area. Under the Miyawaki method, tiny forests grow quickly and provide immediate benefits in restoring ecosystems and building biodiversity. Pocket forests absorb carbon, reduce water runoff, purify the air, manage water, improve soil health, create oxygen, and regulate the climate. They establish quickly and save time and money, particularly on maintenance costs.
