OUR NATURAL WORLD
As any gardener knows, wildlife is vital to production of food and flowers.
Of course, it needs to be managed, but even slugs are a necessary 'evil' as food for our struggling hedgehogs. Growing plants that attract and feed pollinators is an important way to maintain the balance of nature and preserve our environment for the future. They also remove the need for expensive, damaging chemicals in our gardens.
At Grow With Us, we’re all about making our garden a haven for pollinators and other essential creatures. From Bug Hotels and Bird Nest Boxes to Hedgehog Homes and Bird Feeders, we’ve got hands-on activities for all ages to help wildlife thrive. Wander through the garden and you’ll spot our pond teeming with wildlife, buzzing bug homes, and bird feeders galore, each one playing its part in keeping nature ticking.
We are passionate about wildlife and our natural environment and want to pass that passion on to others. We believe that to protect nature, people need to first care about nature, and that lies at the heart of our work.
We aim to:
Help reverse the trend of younger generations becoming increasingly disconnected from wildlife.
Encourage people to be inspired by wildlife through fun experiences and crafts
Develop the skills of those already interested in wildlife
Help families enjoy nature, encouraging a healthy attitude to risk and dirt!
Show people the wider benefits of engaging with nature, including better health.
