GARDENING SUPPORTING OUR EARTH
Top 3 things you could do this year in your outdoor space
- The Soil
- The Air
- The Bees
No 1. The Soil
Enrich your soil by adding nutrients back in. Lay some cardboard on your borders, mulch with leaves and grass cuttings. Work with nature at replenishing not removing.
Give Back To The Soil.
No 2. The Air
Plant a tree. Dwarf trees you can grow in large pots, in borders or as features. We take so much from the air everyday.
Give Back to the air.
No 3. The Bees
Plant some flowers. Add in a pot or create a new space. Think about those bulbs you could plant for that huge winter gap they have. Without the work of the bees we wouldn’t exist.
Give Back to the bees.
