Plant Swap @ Walford Mill

Wilding Wimborne is partnering with Walford Mill to bring you a plant-swap opportunity.  We all tend to plant too many seeds and wonder what to do with the extra that germinate.  Or we split an established plant and don't want to throw away the spare root.

Come to Walford Mill and take advantage of the plants on offer:  you can leave any plants that you don't need and take some that you do!

Seedy Collection

Wilding Wimborne wants to encourage people to grow their own flowers, fruit and vegetables - all in a sustainable way.

Come to the Fair Ground Shop in the Cornmarket, collect some seeds - and get sowing.

A small donation is suggested so we can self-fund for future years.

No Mow May

From the RHS website:

If you want to encourage wildflowers in your lawn, try No Mow May. As the name suggests, you simply stop mowing in early May, which allows the wild plants already in your lawn to grow up and flower, adding colour and attracting pollinating insects and other wildlife. You can leave your whole lawn uncut or just a section.  community, or giving a second life to ingredients that most commonly go to waste
