Creta Maris Green Team in action

Tree Preservation & Guests’ Information on Cretan Flora
   
In the context of Creta Maris Beach Resort’s Social Responsibility Program, on Tuesday, 23rd of July, the resort organized the “Tree Preservation Day,” while it also offered to its guests Information on Cretan Flora. 

The Green Team of Creta Maris Beach Resort, consisting of volunteer-employees and volunteers-guests proceeded with whitewashing* tree trunks and plants’ caring in the premises of the resort, with the aim to protect the environment and to inform and sensitize its guests.
 
At first, the volunteer-guests were informed about the pioneering Sustainability Program that Creta Maris implements and the ways in which they can also contribute to the protection of the environment. Then, they were guided to the beautiful gardens of Creta Maris, consisting of unique species of plants and trees that are typical examples of the local flora, and whitewashed* trees and cared about the flowers.

The guests were impressed and felt lucky to have the opportunity to get acquainted with the Cretan flora and to participate in the traditional work of the Cretans.

*Whitewashing = method often used by tree growers or home gardeners to protect fruit and ornamental trees from pests and sun-scald.
