Explain Like I'm Five

ReLeaf is a group of people in Austin who take things that would be thrown away and turn them into gardens that grow up instead of out. They also write down everything about the things they use and who helped make the garden, so we know where everything came from. This helps us care more about the things we use and not waste them. Everyone who helps make the gardens is important and gets paid fairly. But we also need to remember that some of the things they use come from people who have been mistreated in the past, so we need to be respectful and learn from them. Even though it can be hard, we can use the things we have in a good way and make the world a better place. ReLeaf is a group of friends who want to do that together, and they start with a garden that grows up!
