Curious and Creative Gardening Tour: Wildlife Friendly Museum Gardens

Learn about the initiatives and interventions York Museums Trust's Gardens Team have made to make their busy public garden more wildlife friendly. Take a tour around over 10 acres of grounds, discovering inspiration for your own garden or workplace green spaces.

You'll learn about climate change and biodiversity, discover the importance of insects for the food chain and how to manage your green space throughout the seasons to create wildlife habitat, and adopt a new perspective with some native weeds.

The tour will take an accessible route through the Museum Gardens.

This is one of 60+ free events taking place across the city of York as part of York Environment Festival.
