Did you know that bats help us out in more than one way?🦇 These flying mammals can control pests, pollinate plants and aid seed dispersal. Why not treat bats this Halloween by planting some night-scented flowers? seedball.co.uk/product/bat-m… #BatsMatter #Conservation

RIP Sir Bobby Charlton. Survived the Munich air disaster to become England’s most iconic footballer. Won the World Cup. Won the European Cup. Won the Ballon d’Or. Knighted by Queen Elizabeth II for services to the game he loved. A legend and a gentleman.

It was 41 years ago @chas_dave released ‘Wish I Could Write a Love Song'. It was inspired by the words my dad wrote to my mum @joanhodges66 on an anniversary card. I'll sing it for you

I'm super excited to announce that my new book, The Climate Change Resilient Vegetable Garden (Cool Springs Press) will land Feb 8th 2024. It very much captures the savvy spirit of my approach which began with my climate change savvy garden adventuring for the Guardian in 2013

Last group of the year. Last cake baked. Thank you to all who have come and supported us and the @NGSOpenGardens since April. Next year we will have new openings for snowdrops and narcissus by pre booking only to control the numbers as well as usual Tulip, Meadow and late summer.
