Rooftop Day

Last year, Ronorp organized the first Rooftop Day at Zurich, Basel and Lucern. This year it will also be organized in Geneva on June 28!!!

The idea is simple: those lucky enough to have a garden, balcony or rooftop terrace and who want to host an event, can e-mail geneve@ronorp.net until May 31. It can be a little party, a bbq, a yoga class, an art exhibition, a game... You name it! And Ron will be kind enough to offer the beers!

Ethnopalms

At Geneva's botanical garden (which of course I expect all of you to have already visited!) you can find from from May 14 until October 19 a curious presentation of palmtrees relationship with human beings and the use which we give them: medicines, food, building, weaving, etc.

An interesting exhibition you shouldn't miss and, of course, for free!
