What is Wild Gardening?

Picture
When we use the phrase "wild gardening" we are referring to "wildlife gardening", which is a technique of gardening that provides food, water, shelter for native wildlife and their young.

Wildlife gardens typically feature:
  • Water features, such as ponds, fountains, artificial rivers
  • Rock gardens to provide basking areas for lizards
  • Native plants
  • Animal shelters like bird houses, bat boxes, and bug motels
  • Designated "wild zones" where plants are allowed to go wild

Wildlife gardening addresses a critical environmental problem facing humanity today. Biological diversity, or biodiversity, has been declining across the world. Typically, as an ecosystem's biodiversity reduces, the system's integrity reduces, making it more vulnerable to disruption or collapse. Over time, if the biodiversity decline continues, the ecosystem may collapse - no longer able to support the organisms that depend on it.

Wildlife gardening promotes biodiversity and has the potential to provide habitat sanctuaries and habitat corridors for native wildlife - protecting the health of our home ecoregions!
