New build forest garden
Gardens and landscaping in a new build project are often simply tagged on to the end of the process without much thought or design thinking.
This is understandandable insofar as money and time are the drivers in much of housing development. It is also a missed opportunity, because the costs for a forest garden aren’t much more than a “traditional garden”.
There are also key forest garden and wildlife design features that could easily be incorporated into most new build projects.
Following the livestream at 10.30am, there is a Zoom seminar to which everyone is welcome.

I spotted these amazing white flowers in a wooded area near the river, on the edge of town. According to Harrap’s Wild Flowers, they were introduced by 1548 and first spotted in the wild in 1650.
