Lend a hand to a small community garden to lay the foundations of a new wildlife and bug-friendly garden
The charity BugLife is helping the community of growers at Tabard Gardens Allotments create a bug-friendly garden, which will support the B-Lines pollinator network. Volunteers laid the foundations of the garden in late 2024, and the next stage is to create the beds ready for Spring planting.
