GARDENS FIT FOR A KING!
An initiative has been launched which pays tribute to King Charles III’s long-standing commitment to the natural world and the environment – Coronation Gardens for Food and Nature.
Organised by The Wildlife Trusts in partnership with Incredible Edible, Garden Organic and The NFWI (National Federation of Women’s Institutes), the scheme will encourage people and communities across the United Kingdom to live sustainably and help wildlife recover by growing food and creating space for nature in gardens, on balconies and in shared greenspaces.
Coronation Gardens for Food and Nature is a three-year programme which hopes to enthuse millions of people to grow their own food in wildlife-friendly gardens by providing advice and an opportunity to pledge their garden on a map.
