The first time we were asked to do Social Team Building, the thought was “that’s impossible”; then something clicked inside us. We heard a little voice telling us “if you don’t do it, no one will!“, and so we realised that this kind of activity is the beginning of everything. Our mission has always been to bring a smile to the world, and we try to do this in any way we can. The bigger the challenge, the bigger the commitment!
Social and Ecological Team Building are definitely the most unforgettable activities we do. They require a lot of commitment, but they also bring a lot of satisfaction. We firmly believe that a great team is also necessarily great in its love of nature. Being united in awareness is a good step to feeling united in work too!
With this activity, teams will build a vertical vegetable garden for children in a kindergarten or nursery school. Recycled materials can be used to build the shelves and to make the pots, so that this activity becomes the most complete realisation of Social and Ecological Team Building.
A vertical garden team building activity can provide a unique and engaging experience for all team members, while also fostering important skills and qualities such as teamwork, creativity, problem-solving, and pride in one’s work.
Among our Social Team Building activities, we propose this new format: Vertical Garden Team Building. As already mentioned, in this format participants will build a real vertical vegetable garden to give to a kindergarten or primary school!
Inside the shelves all those seedlings useful for the kindergarten canteen will be planted. The children will thus be able to eat healthier food, having plants such as tomatoes, basil, strawberries and many others. They will also have the opportunity to follow the growth of the plants, take care of them and learn the importance of contact with nature and environmental sustainability. All this will lead to a huge educational effect.
But what is the purpose of this Team Building?
The purpose of this activity is not only to help children, but through this socially useful activity the team members will find themselves more united and, knowing that they are doing good work, much more motivated to work as a team.
It is true that team building activities are useful for companies, managers and employees, but why not think about doing something good for others, the environment or people in need?
Social Team Building is a category that helps make our interventions useful, bringing together all those social initiatives that aim to make participants aware of the most important issues of our present: such as social and ecological issues. All this, of course, without neglecting fun and team spirit.
At the end of the activity, all participants will realise that their team will have done not only a good job, but also one of great importance for the environment. It will certainly be an ennobling experience that will give new impetus to the work of the team as well as that of individuals.
Why should a team choose this activity?
A team may choose to do a Vertical Garden team building activity for a series of reasons, including:
- Encourages teamwork: Vertical gardening involves multiple team members working together to create a living wall of plants. This can help improve communication, collaboration, and cooperation among team members.
- Promotes creativity: Designing and creating a vertical garden requires creativity and innovation, which can help team members to think outside the box and come up with new and unique ideas.
- Enhances problem-solving skills: Vertical gardening can present many challenges, such as how to properly arrange plants for optimal growth or how to create a visually appealing design. Working through these challenges can help team members develop problem-solving skills.
- Fosters a sense of ownership and pride: As team members work together to create a beautiful and functional vertical garden, they will develop a sense of ownership and pride in their work, which can translate to improved morale and motivation in the workplace.
Don’t miss the opportunity to do good for someone!
