Aaron PengellyScenes from the garden - Part 1.
For the past 4 months we have been steadily working on rewilding our backyard. We moved into our new home back in September and the backyard was typical of North American homes: turf grass and extremely groomed aesthetic gardens, absent of biodiversity.
In those four months we have added a wildlife pond, 10 garden beds utilizing co-planting and pesticide-free practices with a mixture of fruit, vegetables, and pollinator friendly plants. We have also been busy setting up bird houses, mason bee houses and habitat, and just recently finished setting up our first worm composting system.
In that short time, we have seen a huge increase in insects and pollinators and birds and I have been spending much of my free time attempting to record and catalogue the various insects and birds visiting to better track the impacts of our work.
Please enjoy a few photos recently captured from the backyard.
