Basil Read Green Projects

Green Projects:

BR – Green Projects is developing energy efficient methods for implementing into its developments. This will involve all houses maximising natural resources and good designs to enhance living conditions without pollution. A pilot nursery has been established to train its staff with the necessary skills to propagate trees, shrubs and vegetables to green our developments. The nursery offers Cosmo City residents free training on how to create their own organic vegetable gardens and plant as well maintain their gardens. BR-GP has also started earthworm farming to assist with waste management and organic gardening by creating vermicompost for the trees, shrubs and vegetables.
