Go wild in your garden!

Large or small, ledge or yard, your garden can be a mosaic in a wider network of natural havens, linking urban green spaces with nature reserves and the countryside. By gardening sympathetically for wildlife, you’ll be rewarded by a truly natural outdoor space, where you can connect with the wildlife that call your patch home.
