The La Salle Botanical Gardens

Productive day at DLSU-Dasmariñas with two parallel meetings advancing the future of the La Salle Botanical Gardens. 🌿

One meeting was held with DLSU-D President and LSBG, Inc. BOT Chair, Br. Iñigo Riola, to discuss the latest development updates and management plans for the gardens.

At the same time, another meeting with the Junior High School faculty, led by Mr. Marlon Pareja, focused on designing an immersive educational field tour for Grade 7 students—bringing classroom learning closer to nature.

Building the gardens while creating meaningful learning experiences for the next generation. 🌱

Escobar's Steakhouse celebrated its 4th anniversary last July 9, 2026 with a meaningful tree growing activity at LSBG. Escobar’s team planted new native tree seedlings and helped w**d and fertilize young seedlings previously planted showing how continuous, collaborative care turns one‑day tree planting events into long‑term forest growth and living collections for future generations. 🌱

BDO Unibank Batch 2 Volunteers 🌱 In a follow-up tree growing activity, a new batch of BDO employees participated in tree growing activity last June 20, 2026 to provide initial care for the seedlings planted by the previous batch.

This time, volunteers stepped into the role of scientists -- conducted basic seedling assessment, labeling, applying soil amendments and establishing seedling guards. Through this type of activity in LSBG, volunteers learn how documenting and monitoring turn planted seedlings into managed living collections in a botanical garden.
