Wildlife Gardening Conference set for 21 June
How can you attract butterflies to your garden? What about moths and all the other garden insects? How many different species of mammal are you likely to find in an average garden?
Find out the answers to these and many more questions by taking part in the Wildlife Gardening Conference, being held at the Zoological Society of London Conference Centre, Regent?s Park.
There will be inspiring presentations packed with practical advice from wildlife experts Chris Baines and Ken Thompson, as well as practical workshops that will help you find out more about the myriad wild plants and animals that can thrive in a garden environment.
Tickets cost £20 and include lunch and refreshments. Conference places are limited, and early booking is recommended. Download a programme and booking form from London Wildlife Trust's website.
All the fun of the fayre
Running along side the conference, but free and open to all, is the Wildlife Gardening Fayre. There will be a wide range of stalls dispensing helpful advice, together with a range of goods for sale including books, bird boxes and native wild flowers. There will also be a range of fun activities for children.
The fayre will take place on Gloucester Green, in the north-east corner of Regent's Park, opposite the zoo. More information about the fayre will be posted on London Wildlife Trust's website as the big day approaches, so keep checking back for updates.
The conference and fayre are being organised by the London Biodiversity Partnership and the Forum for Gardening with Wildlife in Mind.
