| | Gardens are good for you. | “Spending time in green space or bringing nature into your everyday life can benefit both your mental and physical wellbeing. It can improve your mood, reduce feelings of stress or anger, and make you feel more relaxed.”Sound advice from the Mind charity | View this email in your browser | | | | Share | | | Forward | Free online workshop | | In these times of isolation, I’m testing an online 2 hour workshop next Wed 25th March, called | Starting a Forest Garden | (slideshow a Work in Progress!) | It’s live-streaming from my desktop & then the garden, using Discord. If it works, I’ll set up another one—if you’d like to sign up, email me | hello@forestgarden.wales | 🙂🙏 | | | | New garden design project | Very happy to be working on a lovely garden design project locally, lots of hard landscaping on the patio, with two beds round the side of the house and a 20m x 10m forest garden at the back of the house. Designing with herbs & edibles for the BBQ on the patio, with lots of native plants from The Wildflower Nursery, a local Pembrokeshire nursery. | | | #PeatFreeApril | PeatFreeApril is a volunteer-run campaign to promote the use of #PeatFree compost. I’ve created a bulk-buy price list in PDF format for gardening clubs & community organisations, listing compost from Dalefoot Composts, Fertile Fibre and Melcourt. I’ve also helped create a #PeatFree UK Parliament petition. | SIGN THE PETITION! | | | Woodland scene | I’ve been building plenty of dead hedges this winter and was out in the wood this week, thinning Sycamore trees for fuel. Spring flowers are out in force, really quite beautiful. | | Share | | | Forward to Friend | |
