Our second Depave Paradise event in London was part of the Jeanne Sauvé French Immersion Public School playground. 

With support from volunteers, we successfully met our goals. 100 square meters of under-utilized pavement was removed and replaced it with gardens full of over 22 native plant species with an emphasis on pollinator-friendly species.

This success of this project due to the incredible educational leaders and student volunteers who completed majority of this work.

In addition to the plants, the site now features armourstone seating facing the school, as well as a sign to educate the public on a number of local pollinator species they may be able to spot in the new gardens. 

Thank you to our fantastic local project partners who are offering their time, services, and products to make this Depave Paradise another successful event: Green Communities Canada, Thames Valley District School Board, City of London, TRY Recycling, Heeman's, MTE Consultants, McCabe Promotional Advertising Inc., Stone Paradise, and the AGAPE Foundation of London.
