Little Babylon is the name given to the Mount Street Rooftop Garden project led by Tessa Laird in an effort to resurrect the garden that once flourished beyond dying plants and cigarette buds. Other plant friendly members include Adam Willetts, Zita Joyce, and Helga Fassonaki. Together, the LBC team set out on a mission of cleaning, de weeding, planting, and
re-kindling plant life in a playful way

Because of Tessa's relentless love and devotion to Little Babylon, the garden is ever so alive today and flourishing vibrantly

Below is an essay written by Tahi Moore about the Little Babylon project included in the fourth issue of Crease Magazine.
