We know we need to preserve water in the garden, and we regularly share waterwise tips to do this.

Essentially, the key is to try to reduce your garden’s impact on the environment by:

• Creating less waste
• Using fewer chemicals
• Preserving natural resources

If you are doing and prioritising these three actions in your garden, you are well on your way to creating an eco-friendly garden.

Here are our first 3 tips in this series to help you get started:

• Go organic – use organic solutions to treat pests.
• Create your own compost heap from compost-friendly kitchen and garden scraps, this will assist with the condition of your soil and also function as a natural fertiliser for your plants.
• Recycle – before buying something new for the garden, like a wind barrier or covering to make shade with – look in the garage (or in the house) for something that can be repurposed.
