Green Books – Gardening to save the planet

Posted on 23 February 2021

For their second Green Books event, Greening Steyning have invited wildlife guru Dave Goulson to talk about his latest bestseller “The Garden Jungle or, Gardening to Save the Planet.”

The book is a wonderful introduction to the hundreds of small creatures with whom we live cheek-by-jowl and of the myriad ways that we can encourage them to thrive. Dave Goulson is great speaker, and has been described as “the kind of humorous, knowledgeable and bubblingly enthusiastic teacher anyone would want.”

It’s on Thursday 4th March from 7.30-8.30pm. You can either book a free ticket or choose to make a small donation (minimum £1) to cover costs and help support the work of Greening Steyning. Sign up via Eventbrite.

And in case you missed out on seeing Greening Steyning’s excellent Green Books with Charles Dowding on ‘No Dig Gardening’, it is now available to watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bc0uUmeI-I&feature=youtu.be

I've just accessed it and countless other people do all the time so no idea why that message is coming up. Can you try again please or just go into our website and choose the Repair Cafe tab.

Can I ask if anyone could try and fix my 6 month old electric blanket I can’t get a refund for. It must be a loose connection it’s practically brand new
