Calling All Urban Gardeners!
If you’ve got a green thumb, this might be the time to flaunt it and win prizes for your effort in greening the city. The City of Athens and This is Athens with Organization Earth, launch the city’s greenest competition to make the Greek capital a more sustainable city. Named “Greening the Grey”, the competition invites Athenians to “bring nature to their homes and neighborhoods” by converting balconies, terraces and courtyards into “green corners”. All you need to do is to share photos of your green corners and upload it to the Earth Organization’s website.

The best photos will be selected through an online vote that will run from May 1 to May 25. The winners will be announced during a special ceremony on World Environment Day on June 5.
