  "account": "Malaga Viva, a community project in Malaga Province, is inviting residents to participate in a series of free tree-planting events this autumn. The initiative, part of the Diputacion de Malaga's environmental programme, aims to combat soil erosion, climate change, and biodiversity loss. Over 2,400 trees and shrubs will be planted across four locations in Axarquia and Serrania de Ronda between October and November.\n\nParticipants can join in the activities in Parauta, Parque de La Vega, Canillas de Aceituno, and La Viñuela during the first three weekends of October and November. Species to be planted include carob, holm oak, mastic, oleander, wild olive, poplar, tamarisk, rosemary, lavender, and thyme. The events offer a chance for both locals and expats to connect with the environment and each other while contributing to the local community.\n\nRegistration is free and open online through the Malaga Viva website, with each planting day having its own registration window. The first event is scheduled for October 18 in Parauta, near the children's park, followed by Parque de La Vega on October 25, Canillas de Aceituno on November 22, and La Viñuela on November 29. The provincial council provides transportation for participants, and a social atmosphere is encouraged as residents from the host municipality join in the planting activities.",
