SMALL WAYS TO MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE

Plan a potager

When planning a new veg garden now, consider weaving in rows of blooms to bring in pollinators.

Leave leaf litter

Collect some for leaf mould, but leave some for worms to break down, or to provide wildlife shelter.

Choose cheap perennials

Supermarkets tend to have cheap shrubs and perennials now – so stock up!

Put up a new nest box

Buy or make a new plain wood nest box and site it 2-4m up near vegetation with a clear flight path.
