Walk the Butterfly Path and see a degraded site turned into a biodiversity-rich ecosystem.
In this session, participants will visit one of KFBG’s restoration projects at the Butterfly Path, led by Fernanda, to learn how we are transforming a degraded, low-biodiversity site infested with invasive species into a vibrant, biodiversity-rich ecosystem through enrichment planting with native plants. This project creates a sanctuary for many threatened native plant species and supports myriad dependent wildlife, while showcasing the stunning and often unseen botanical flora that call Hong Kong’s countryside home.
