In the second year of Great Outdoors, Landlife is working again with Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council and local communities to sow large areas of wildflowers in our parks and greenspaces. We did this in April this year and the colourful wildflower meadows are starting to flower.
For more information.
Sowing the Old Rough 2009
We are working on projects in 2009 including Great Outdoors, a nature, health and wellbeing programme. Our November 2008 Nature and Public Health Open Day at the National Wildflower Centre brought together health practitioners, community champions and creative projects in Knowsley, in a very successful event.
More development of our soil inversion work is planned in Newcastle with the Woodland Trust.
