Nurturing Nature in Liverpool allotment, teaching school pupils about vegetables

At the allotment

All my articles, videos and work are funded by my teaching and sales of award winning bumblebee nest boxes, solitary bee boxes,  and wormeries.

Children from Year 3 have been taking part in the “Little Dibbers” project run by the local community organisation Arch and overseen by George Pilkington of Nurturing Nature

Spraying the plants with seaweed

Once a week, they visit the local allotments and plant and tend a raised-bed garden. The project is long-term; children plant, tend, harvest, cook and eat the crops they grow.
