But the online hour is very useful.

These students in Ireland are taking action for the planet by building an ARK — a little patch of wild nature where biodiversity can thrive again! 🌿✹ An ARK (Act of Restorative Kindness) is a rewilded space where native plants grow freely, helping ecosystems recover. Behind their school they turned an unused plot into a sanctuary for wildlife — proof that small actions can make a big impact! 🌍💚 To learn more about how to build your own ARK, watch Wild Hope’s episode Gardener to Guardian, now streaming on @pbsnature and wildhope.tv! #WildHope #UK #GardenerToGuardian #WeAreTheArk #PBSNature #WatchNow #Rewilding

Pollinators are often the gateway drug to conservation for gardeners. But ecosystems are circular systems - not points of focus. We have to support nature to mend her broken systems and re-weave the web of life back together by restoring native plant communities as much as we can in every patch we can. This starts with our gardens if we are lucky enough to have one. If you want to save the planet, start with your own patch of it. 🌎 don’t wait for somebody else to fix it.

The Irish Daily Mail did a 2-page spread in yesterday's edition. In an interview @Wildmarymary talked about the gardening revolution and our new show Réabhlóid Ar Chul An Tí that will redefine how we are perceiving our private spaces, and how bringing native plants and biodiversity back changes people for the better. Thank you so much, Mary - for your trust in us and the concept! We cannot wait to show the world, how wonderful it feels to be part of the ARK-movement! Tune in this Sunday at 20:00 on TG4, and become part of the Backgarden Revolution!!
