We were asked by the Courtyard Youth Centre to make a wildlife garden in their small space. We completely denuded it, discovering 2 abandoned nests, a mass of rubbish and a disgusting fag bucket. Cruel to be kind they say. Well many of the plants will spring up afresh, and the newly dug soil was home for a host of mainly shade loving self-perpetuating herbaceous and wild flower plants which will attract insects and birds. We will revisit to keep an eye on it!
