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

What a strange summer we are having - tadpoles in the pond in July and the Rowan full of berries, drought and very slow growth in June and everything's gone mad in the past 2 weeks since it got wetter - some things putting on a couple of feet in less than a week!! All part of the new "normal" I guess....

Big thanks to Tracey, Kay, Jay, Emma, Michael and Sally for coming to help Alan and I knock it all back into shape.
