"Wing Friendly" Gardens

Bee Movie

Do you know what a "wing friendly" garden is? It's a garden that attracts butterflies and bees. Butterflies and bees are important for pollination which helps produce more crops every year so plants don't die (it's kind of like the film Bee Movie).

"Wing friendly" gardens have food, shelter and pesticide free areas so butterflies and bees can live happily there.

Blackwater Youth Tidy Towns are inviting people in the village to make a section of their gardens "wing friendly" and we will give out some free seeds and instructions to help you do this! If you would like to take part, please contact Margaret S.
