New garden design? BBC's says :get ready for the reverse make-over

You know change is becoming maistream when the BBC decides to dedicate a series in prime time on the issue...

And that is what the BBC is doing with the new show : Get Wild about your garden [trailer here]

It is about making the urban garden space wild again, unsophisticated and full of creepy crawlies!

I am of those who strongly believe cows and mini farms are coming back to cities!

New series, in which Nick Knowles attempts to give urban spaces a reverse makeover. The team meets Betty from Crayford, who cannot understand why she never sees butterflies these days. She has put up bird feeders, but has failed to attract any feathered friends. In fact, she misses wildlife so much that she has gathered a menagerie of plastic animals to fill the gap. 

Breathing Places is a major BBC Learning campaign to inspire and motivate you to create and care for nature-friendly green spaces where you live.  6a00d83451b60269e2010534d3402e970c-800wi[1]
