Exciting Developments at GARDEN: A Step Towards a Sustainable Future in Bulgaria

On November 21, 2024, as part of the GARDEN: Interreg Euro-Med Project consortium, our team had the opportunity to visit a promising pilot site in Dolni Chiflik, Bulgaria. We were warmly greeted by municipal representatives, who shared their enthusiasm for the exciting plans ahead.

We have visited a building that is now in renovation and will be completed in 2025. Once completed, it will serve as a social kitchen, providing the community with essential services and promoting social cohesion. In line with the GARDEN project’s overarching goal of fostering sustainable logistics, we are thrilled to contribute to this initiative by providing two electric vehicles and a dedicated charging station. These vehicles will play a crucial role in supporting the operations of the social kitchen, ensuring that transportation needs are met in an eco-friendly way.

This development is part of a broader effort to reduce the carbon footprint of everyday operations and encourage the adoption of sustainable practices. The addition of electric vehicles and the charging station will significantly enhance the efficiency and environmental sustainability of the social kitchen, helping to create a greener future for Dolni Chiflik.

Looking ahead, next year is shaping up to be very exciting for the project. The planned renovations and the introduction of electric vehicles are just the beginning of what promises to be a transformative initiative.

The visit to Dolni Chiflik was part of the GARDEN 3rd Steering Committee Meeting, which brought together project partners and stakeholders for two days of collaboration, progress updates, and discussions on future goals. The meeting, held in Varna and Dolni Chiflik, was a testament to the project’s united vision for a sustainable and greener future. Together, we are making strides toward a world that is more environmentally responsible and socially inclusive.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to build a sustainable future, one step at a time!
