The idea
Our project focuses on rewilding roadside verges in our village to create thriving habitats for wildlife. With approval from the County Council, we've engaged the community by distributing wildflower seeds and eco-friendly newspaper plant pots to Schools and local groups. Following a successful village meeting, preparations are well underway for the grand community for seed harvesting events, bringing everyone together to help rejuvenate our local ecosystem.
