Introduction to Wildlife Garden Design

Continuing our Design Workshop Series, Andy, of Sherwood Garden Consultancy, will share his practical tips and advice on designing gardens with a specific focus on wildlife.

You'll explore ways to maximise wildlife and nature rich gardens and discuss how to design, renew or redesign your green spaces and gardens.

The focus will be around 'soft landscaping' and planting, layout and habitat creation, as well as how to build a garden sustainably.

Your host will meet you outside the main gates on Ransom Road, so please wait there (even if the gate is open.)

Capacity: The maximum group size will be 10 people.

Facilities: A compost toilet is available at the Orchard.

Clothing: Please dress for the weather, and wear comfortable foot wear. The garden is a 5-minute walk from the entrance to the allotments.

Parking: There is plenty of free roadside parking along Ransom Road.

Contact: If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at [email protected]
