Plant Gang

Plant Gang started by Liv Worsnop was a concept that seeks to work with the environments in Christchurch. Places that were demolished by the Christchurch earthquakes were not seen as demolition site but were seen as a place for growth, where weeds were not seen as weeds but as a contributor to our surrounding environment such as it gives benefit to the insects, birds, air and the soil.
