Peponi school visit outside garden centre

This project will help in activities to secure the park status, provide learning and understanding, keep people informed, and build and grow the relationship the Friends have started with supporters. Some of these will include:

1) Advocacy efforts to keep the protection of City Park in focus.

2) Monthly nature walks that play their part in allowing more people get to learn and experience it’s history, animals and plants.

3) Further work on the pollinator garden effort with more planting and space improvements.

4) Have volunteer(s), who would be able to spend part of their week at the garden to take people around and talk to them about nature, habitats and their conservation.

5) Improve on the website and blog to help in education and engagement, and increase blog output and community interaction.

With these opportunities to know the many values (ecological, health, educational) associated with green parks, we’ll be striving to increase the interest, awareness, and learning of nature. It benefits the park helping to protect it from encroachment so that the whole continues as a public green space. It brings more people to support City Park and builds a more vibrant Friends community of followers and subscribers.
