It's been a busy March for Father Nature!

World Book Day goes green! Hitherfield Primary gardening club got together with Lambeth Labour councillors at the new Leigham/Palace filter to plant spring bulbs in the Father Nature cost saving refurbished pollinator friendly planters for Lambeth Climate Action & Biodiversity plans.

As you wander round Brixton Village and Market Row you may notice our new planters. We've provided edging for you to perch on and many have climbing plants that will eventually grow to form a living canopy as you wander round the market. Enjoy!

Our work came with a 5⭐review from Diana at the Brixton Village/Market Row team who worked closely with us to make the project just right: "Father Nature has a personable approach and the entire team are truly passionate about sustainable landscaping. From initial enquiry, installation and aftercare they're delivered high quality landscaping to meet our needs perfectly."

Our planting scheme for PALACE ROAD, off the South Circular is coming on nicely. 🌱🥀🌿Commissioned by Systra and Lambeth Council we have populated the beds to ensure the planting meets the commitments of the Lambeth Pollinator Action Plan 2021-2025. This means a minimum of 70% ‘pollinator-friendly’ species as defined by the Royal Horticultural Society, London Beekeepers Association or other appropriate organisations. The plants reflect some native species and will have an
extended flowering season, with early spring and autumn bee 🐝friendly nectar sources to maximise nectar availability through the year. And they've all been bedded down in peat-free compost where possible. There's a lot goes into planting the right plants! We hope all the local residents - human and insect - will enjoy watching them grow over the coming months.

EFFRA Nursery, Brixton playround makover... and we saved the tree! 😊🌳Using CAD design to manage the design we were able to accommodate the tree's root system and still create an interactive space for the kids. Now the little people have a brand new natural play space, with natural boulders and woodchip to muck about about and a spanking new softpour safety flooring area to make the most of playtime. 🌲💚🌳

Our first of many bushels of lavender harvested from the Max Roach Park maze, designed and maintained by us (with a lot of help from GoodGym Lambeth 🙏) in partnership with BrixtonBID. Next comes more harvesting by local community groups and schools, drying, and turning into product ready for Christmas!

Planting up the Elm Park and High Trees areas is is our latest mission in our work for Lambeth Council to green the Tulse Hill area with biodiverse plants that will give walkways a much needed lift and encourage local wildlife on the way. Special thanks to Lyn and May who kept smiling through all the rain to get those lovely plants out of the milk float and into the ground!

Another inner city London school transformed for a brighter greener future! 🌺 Planters were added to highlight the trees and social areas and with the hard work and enthusiasm of both pupils and staff we planted up all the wonderful flowers and shrubs from Evergreen Services Ltd. Christchurch Bentinck CE Primary in Marylebone NW1 has now turned their playground areas from 'grey to green' and sparked the interest of a new generation of keen gardeners. The School Head gave us a glowing review ❤️: "We really appreciated your approach to the project – your team were friendly and cooperative throughout. We appreciated yours and your team’s ‘can-do’ attitude and subject knowledge, and the way in which the whole team brought in the children. Now we just need to water everything sufficiently to help it establish!!
It was a pleasure working with you."

What fun we all had again at Lambeth Country Show this year! We had so many visitors, young and old, trying out woodwork tools for the first time. And our supervised hay bale igloo was a huge hit with the kids who were joyfully (and safely) engaged in 'Straw wars'!... How often do inner city kids get to go wild and be 'creatively destructive'?! We lost count of the number of times parents told us"This is the most fun my kid's had at the entire show!"

Our work at Hall School Wimbledon is coming along very nicely! We've been busy weeding, pruning, lopping, planting and laying fresh woodchip, new paths and new natural bed borders... It'll be perfect for next term for the students when they return. They will certainly be needing some fresh air in nature between all those upcoming exams! Wishing you all good luck!😊 🌺💮🌱
