The Chorley Council: Wild & Tended Garden

Many people do not have access to acres of land to create their own wildflower meadow to support local wildlife. However, most do have access to a doorstep, balcony or garden space where British native plants can be incorporated, creating wildlife corridors between urban areas and the countryside.

With a combination of native plants and wildflowers along with cultivated varieties, The Chorley Council: Wild & Tended Garden inspires a balanced approach to planting design with vibrancy as nature intended. With a wildlife pool made from upcycled materials the garden creates further habitats for amphibious and aquatic life under the dappled canopy of native shrubs, providing shade and shelter in a warming climate.
