In February '23, we planted 120 trees that will turn into a mini forest. We added a pond and sowed wildflower seeds. In future, we want to build a dead hedge and add a hedgehog house to support the local population.
Total cost: about £800
Planted in December '23: Cotoneaster - top-rated to improve air quality because of its superpowers to trap airborne particles - and many native hedge plants. We also planted lots of spring bulbs and some fern as undergrowth. Some wildflower seeds will hopefully survivce the heavy footfall and thrive.
Think & Do planted a wonderful native hedge along the fence. We are hoping to complement that by enriching part of the grass with wildflowers. A second area in the front could also become a wildflower meadow.
