The garden was created through engagement, reuse, and collaboration with the municipality, according to official sources. The site had been overgrown and partly covered in charcoal remains for over 50 years after a house burned down. The initiators saw potential in the site and started thinking about what could be done there, as described by SVT Västmanland.
They contacted the municipality and obtained a usage agreement, though the specific terms of that agreement have not been disclosed. At least five truckloads of garbage have been removed, dangerous trees have been felled, and the municipality helped with a barbecue area and spring bulbs, according to SVT Västmanland. The garden has been built on a foundation of reuse, with fallen branches becoming fences, manure sourced from local businesses, and plants donated by villagers, though the exact businesses providing manure are unknown.
A pond has been created, and the barbecue area has become a natural gathering point. The garden is a home for birds, insects, and plants, with biodiversity as a guiding principle throughout the work. The first spadefuls were taken in spring 2025, but the exact size of the garden and the number of hours spent on the work remain unspecified.
Future plans for the garden's development have not been detailed.
