Support of community life
Regular programs and overall the entire garden space will support community life. At the same time, the Port 7 Center is preparing programs that purposefully try to connect the local community, seniors, children, neighbors and the general public.

Support for greenery in the City District
The community garden will enable the citizens of Prague to grow flowers and crops and thus support the development of urban greenery. At the same time, we try to lead by example and inspire the community to create more "green" spaces in our city. Regular excursions for children, seniors and adults will be used for this.
