Are you
interested in finding out more about wildlife gardening?
Jenny runs one day and longer
residential wildlife gardening courses in many parts of the country. A course in wildlife
gardening can be an ideal way of learning more about this way of managing your
garden and meeting like-minded people. You can chose between a group day
in a variety of venues or one to one day with Jenny on her own.
Courses at Jenny's home, The Crib in South Shropshire, are taught from the
cosy
log cabin teaching room below.
As other dates and venues are
confirmed for 2009, the information will be added
to the course

We are currently taking bookings for wildlife gardening courses
for small groups using the garden here at The Crib, near
Ludlow in South Shropshire during the Summer 2009. These will cover
general wildlife gardening,
plus more specialist days on making meadows, butterfly gardening, wildflower
gardening and making wildlife ponds. The days will be informative,
relaxing and fun. The cost includes lunch using produce from the organic vegetable
plot at The Crib where possible, afternoon tea in the meadow
(weather permitting!), all other refreshments and a course pack of information,
wildflower seeds, free samples and catalogues, plus one of Jenny's books
relevant to your course. These group courses will cater for small
numbers (a
maximum of 5 people) and can be booked as gifts for
friends and family. Click
