Environmentally friendly Gardens

Here's a few tips to help the environment and encourage wildlife to your garden.

  • Old logs in the shade can attract frogs and newts and as the wood rots a range of insects will follow.
  • Hedges encourage a range of wildlife for food and shelter.
  • Pollinating plants will encourage butterflies and bees.
  • Ponds with varying depths and oxygenating plants make for good pond-life.
  • Climbing plants can provide food for birds and other wildlife.
  • Creating a compost heap can feed your garden.
  • Collected rainwater can be used for watering plants.

From Greenhouse to Polytunnel

We are trying to raise £1,000 to buy a Polytunnel. So far, we have raised £650. Can you help us get any closer?
