We Can Change the World One Garden at a Time

Small-scale gardening can have a big impact on the environment. Horticulturist Ciarán De Buitléar from Stamullen believes that by adopting nature-friendly gardening, we can help combat climate change, biodiversity loss, and the decline in insect populations.

With over 1.5 million gardens in Ireland, small individual actions—such as planting native species, reducing plastic use, and creating wildlife habitats—can lead to significant environmental change.

Simple Ways to Help the Planet

• Plant Native Trees & Wildflowers: Support local ecosystems.
• Reduce Plastic Waste: Choose sustainable gardening solutions.
• Provide Wildlife Habitats: Install bird and bat boxes.
• Start Composting: Improve soil health naturally.
