Wilding Wimborne is partnering with Walford Mill to bring you a plant-swap opportunity. We all tend to plant too many seeds and wonder what to do with the extra that germinate. Or we split an established plant and don't want to throw away the spare root.
Come to Walford Mill and take advantage of the plants on offer: you can leave any plants that you don't need and take some that you do!

From the RHS website:
If you want to encourage wildflowers in your lawn, try No Mow May. As the name suggests, you simply stop mowing in early May, which allows the wild plants already in your lawn to grow up and flower, adding colour and attracting pollinating insects and other wildlife. You can leave your whole lawn uncut or just a section. community, or giving a second life to ingredients that most commonly go to waste

Right now, there are 3.5 billion people still living without safe toilets. 419 million people still practise ‘open defecation’. In these situations, diseases spread, killing 1,000 children under-five every single day. This global crisis poses a threat to nature and everyone’s health, particularly women, girls, and other vulnerable groups.
