LAST WILD DAY TODAY!

Since Monday, Devon Wildlife Trust has been working with St Bridget Nurseries' staff to create a permanent BBC Breathing Place. The event was organised to celebrate St Bridget Nurseries becoming a Silver Level, Devon Wildlife Trust Approved Garden Centre. Devon Wildlife Trust designed a wildlife garden with butterfly border and Invertebrate Hibernation Castle!

Today the garden is due for completion so it is well worth a visit to St Bridget Nurseries Garden Centre in Old Rydon Lane Exeter. You will be able to ask the experts questions and find out why each plant and product has been chosen. Many of the items used have been recycled from materials used on the nursery. For example the hibernation castle is built from wooden pallets, terracotta pots, bamboo canes, straw, rocks, wood and air vent bricks. In addition the obelisk which has climbing plants growing up it was an old shop display stand!

Children visitors are invited to take part in a treasure hunt quiz. Simply pick up an entry form, find the 10 posters hidden around the garden centre and write down what simple step each poster tells you about. The 10 steps are simple ways you can help the environment and wildlife at home. Each completed entry receives a small prize and all entries will be put into a draw to win a ladybird box and £5 St Bridget Nurseries Gift Token.
