  • โœจ Creative Mindset: Ability to create eye-catching content that engages and inspires.
  • ๐Ÿ’ฌ Strong Communication Skills: Comfortable interacting with followers and team members.
  • ๐ŸŒฟ Passion for Nature & Sustainability: A genuine interest in gardening, sustainability, and community initiatives.
