Our biggest pond restoration project of 2025 (so far)! To rewild this old fish pond our first major issue was to shallow out the banks of the pond so wildlife can get in and out of it. We did this with Manny tones of sand and stones and then boulders, hopefully these will create lots of small spaces aquatic life can use, plus provide a structure to climb out of the pond. Around the pond we created Hibernaculum's for hibernating amphibians and an overflow marsh making lots of different wetland habitats for wildlife to take advantage of. Meanwhile Mark finished making the pergola and was very proud. To celebrate we sacrificed him to the gods in the new stone circle. Okay maybe not, but we did build a stone circle.
Stay tuned to see this Goliath of a pond planted up!

Have a look at this verge. From humble beginnings in 2018 to today. Over the years this wildflower patch has grown to take over all of the space. This is partly thanks to the council mowers who very kindly the whole thing down one year, just before . But after a year of recovery the verge has come back fighting 🥊🌼🌺🥊
