The best place to start making a difference to the environment is in your own backyard.
The pages introduce some basic principles that you can follow to support the environment in your own garden.
Get to know what's beyond your back door
Every local area has its own ecosystem shaped by
climate, weather, soil, flora and fauna and with this comes
unique sensitivities. It is important to understand what's best
for your own backyard to be able to make a contribution and
nurture your local environment.
Your local garden centre staff will understand your local area and can give advice to help you protect your environment from your own backyard.
Discovering what you can do to support the environment
is easy.
There are simple considerations around issues like
water, weeds, chemicals recycling and habitat that make all the
difference. Growing your own food and practising
sustainable gardening are other fun and rewarding ways to
support the environment in your garden.
