Event Description
Discover practical ways to transform your garden into a sanctuary for wildlife with Chloe Cox, co-founder of Wild Stroud. This event explores practical steps to create mini nature reserves within our own gardens.
Chloe will delve into the urgent need to restore habitats lost to urbanisation, chemical use and other human impacts. Discover how, as gardeners, we can play a pivotal role in rebuilding these vital ecosystems. Even dedicating a small portion of our gardens to wildlife can have a profound impact.
Chloe brings her years of experience in community engagement and ecological restoration to this session. Through Wild Stroud's initiatives, including open garden schemes and workshops, Chloe has inspired individuals to take meaningful steps toward conserving local biodiversity.
Learn key principles and strategies from Chloe on maximising the impact of your gardening efforts for wildlife conservation. Understand the interconnectedness of all living things in our ecosystems, from the smallest insects like midges and aphids to the essential soil-enriching organisms like worms and fungi.

Meet the Host, Chloe
Chloe Cox runs a community wildlife group in Stroud, Gloucestershire. She and an ecologist friend Emily started Wild Stroud to support and help people create mini nature reserves in their garden. Through an open garden scheme and many workshops, Chloe has inspired people to take action for nature. Now in its fifth year she and Emily are collaborating with the National Trust to create a food corridor for insects through our urban area, connecting fragmented strongholds.
