My Climate Change Garden

The chemical gardening season is currently in full flow and I have noticed how every other ad on the TV promotes a range of horrendous potions which are supposed to keep your garden looking good.

Surely gardening is about being connected to the earth and nature? Scattering a cocktail of chemicals around the garden seems so unacceptable to me . What do you think?

Being greener in the garden is easy with such a range of excellent eco products on the market. There is also tons of information and advice available on the net to explain the benefits of green gardening:

My favourite green gardening site has just been re-launched today. Set up by a young gardening entrepreneur called Callum Davis, its aim is “To manufacture products which are natural, ethical, recyled, ec0-friendly, sustainaable or support a good cause”. The business has evolved over the past two years from Callum’s original idea of producing a natural repellent for slugs/ snails using ground coffee dregs and recycled ground ceramics that are made into tiny shards too sharp for slugs/snails to tolerate.

Great to see young gardening entrepreneurs like Callum promoting eco- gardening with building a succesful business. Visit his excellent site for tips and inspiration about green gardening and to buy a range of excellent products that will make both you and your garden feel better. http://www.ecocharlie.co.uk/green-gardening
