The path area for the butterfly garden was dug out as well as the large area for the largest butterfly mosaic.The path will hopefully be finished by November,and the large butterfly bedded in,small mosaics to follow and then the planting begins
A great start by the Wednesday Volunteers at the National Wildflower Centre clearing an area that is going to be planted up to attract more butterflies into the area which as well as plants will festooned with butterfly mosiacs made by local groups under the watchful eye of Tracey(local and very good artist).I've left details out as I've lost the bit of paper with them on ,anyway watch this blog for progress and to all involved so far, you know who you are THANK YOU
New residents moved into the snailery(one of the few if not the only one in the North West) recently,this time of year though not much useful compost is being made,WHY NOT you may ask,well .......................the snails are starting to hibernate zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
These are the methods of worm composting that I use at work to produce a valuable nutrient rich soil improver (worm poo and juice to you and I ).These photos show the compost produced in a bought ,recycled,and a constructed wormery and a tumbler wormery.The bought wormery is the one that produces compost and liquid,but the others can be adapted. It's not easy,but I will say this give it a go,start off small and you'll soon get in to it
