From hosting the world-famous 2012 Olympics and Paralympics to the present year &#8211; showcasing Rugby, Football, and Baseball matches &#8211; along with music concerts. The London Stadium is proud to have the biggest turnaround of events any venue has ever achieved. Covering 560 acres, this scheme when built saw one of the largest landscape operations implemented involving the planting of 6000 new trees from Hillier Nurseries, 15 acres of woodland and hedgerow habitat and a mass clean-up of the polluted waterways. These waterways now act as a unique SuDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage System) feature and gives flood prevention for 5000 homes further downstream. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41365\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41365\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-41365 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Villiers-Garden-Olympic-Park-London-Resize-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"villiers garden olympic park trees velodrome\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Villiers-Garden-Olympic-Park-London-Resize-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Villiers-Garden-Olympic-Park-London-Resize-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Villiers-Garden-Olympic-Park-London-Resize-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Villiers-Garden-Olympic-Park-London-Resize-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Villiers-Garden-Olympic-Park-London-Resize-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/greenblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Villiers-Garden-Olympic-Park-London-Resize.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41365\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Villiers Garden &#8211; Olympic Park &#8211; London<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Throughout the\u00a0very\u00a0enjoyable\u00a0day,\u00a0we heard from\u00a0some\u00a0admirable\u00a0speakers and experts,\u00a0discussing\u00a0wildlife gardening, sustainability, sports turf management,\u00a0best practice tree planting\u00a0and what it means to be a Head Gardener\u00a0for\u00a0a venue of grand scale.\u00a0Speakers included\u00a0Graham Gilmore, CEO of London Stadium,\u00a0who provided a visual\u00a0insight into the operations of the pitch,\u00a0to a multitude of\u00a0students who are currently studying and\u00a0described their placements within the industry at\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kew.org\/\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kew Gardens<\/span><\/b><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/moortrees.org\/\">Moor Trees<\/a>, a charity committed to reforesting Dartmoor with native species.<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Emerging\u00a0horticultural\u00a0talent\u00a0were given the\u00a0opportunity of speaking and\u00a0visiting the\u00a0careers springboard;\u00a0allowing\u00a0these future landscapers\u00a0and\u00a0forward-looking\u00a0companies an opportunity to collaborate\u00a0and circulate ideas.
