A huge thank you to everyone who took part in our Wildlife Gardening competition! We had 15 entries ranging from tiny courtyard gardens to expansive wildflower meadows. During August’s heatwave our judge, Paul French, visited each garden/smallholding accompanied by one of Bridford’s Wildlife Wardens. It was inspiring to see so much care and attention going in to creating an exciting variety of habitats for wildlife, and everyone who entered has helped to raise awareness of the importance of gardening with wildlife in mind.
Once all the gardens had been visited we held an informal presentation in the Woodland Park to which entrants and their families came for light refreshments and to see who had won! Everyone who entered was given a Certificate to commemorate their efforts.
We’d like to thank everyone who helped to make this event possible including Teign Valley Nursery, Teign House Inn, Whippletree Farm, Bridford Parish Council and Paul French who had the difficult job of deciding who had won in each of 3 classes. More competition-related posts to follow!
