Wildlife Friendly Garden Scheme

2006 saw the launch of the Trust’s first ever wildlife friendly gardens scheme to increase awareness about wildlife gardening and raise funds to protect Herefordshire’s wildlife.

This popular and successful scheme will run for its 4th consecutive year in 2009, due to the kind generosity of our members. The programme of events for this scheme will be available shortly.
