Forest Garden Wales

Online course & remote design

I really enjoyed the forest garden tours this year but there weren’t enough of them! So, I’m creating an online course and promoting my (remote) forest garden design services. I’ll bring you regular updates along with other news via this mailling list. If you’d rather not, you can unsubscribe 😢

Small forest garden design

I’ve been very fortunate to have designed a small forest garden for clients in North London.

Informed by a

New Garden Ethic

(ie wildlife), it has been great fun designing for

everyone & everything

.

Wildlife & humans

We can create gardens that cater for wildlife & humans; this is at the very heart of forest gardening. A fantastic resource is the Database of Insects and their Food Plants. The native Tansy is a host plant for more than 6 beetles, 1 fly and 18 micro-moths.

 #PeatFree nurseries

Garden writer and activist Nic Wilson has created a list of #PeatFree nurseries. Don’t just buy peat free compost, make sure your plants are peat free as well! And sign the petition too 🙂
