OUT I N THE GARDEN

MAKE A MEADOW

Incorporating a ‘wild’ meadow section into your garden will be a boon to insects and other wildlife. Now is the time to consider planting mixed seeds.

DIG DEEP

As spring approaches, it’s an opportune time to create a pond. Ensure there is a gentle slope at the sides, to make it more wildlife-friendly.

FEED THE BIRDS

If cold weather persists, hanging feeders, or scattering food on the ground, will give birds a helping hand. You can also clear away patches of snow, so birds can get a head start on hunting for insects.
