www.gofundme.com
The global COVID-19 pandemic has created a very uncertain landscape for mill… Duncan A Bolton needs your support for Support Birdworld during Covid-19 closureDon't forget that the clocks go forward an hour this weekend! ⏰
With longer days, our plants will really start to take off now, so it's a good time to be sowing seeds outside and planting seedlings - just remember to give them some protection from cold evenings until all chance of frosts have cleared.

British Summer Time 2020: When do the clocks change?
buff.ly
While the UK's recent storms and flooding may suggest otherwise, the warmer weather and lighter evenings will soon make a return, and this weekend, the clocks will change, as we enter British Summer Time (BST).For those growing Citrus at home, the increased sunlight we're getting is ideal for conservatory or greenhouse grown Citrus trees.
As the temperatures warm up over the coming months, they can be gradually moved outdoors by acclimatising them in a slightly shady spot. Just be careful not to expose them to cold north or easterly winds!
Citrus will not ripen and fall like other fruits. Instead they will remain on the tree until they are harvested - when they look good enough to eat then give them a try!

Last year, our centres collectively raised nearly £25,000 for their local, chosen charities!
We’re delighted to be working with four more fantastic charities for 2020, including Dorset Blind Association Canine Partners Countess Mountbatten Hospice and Alzheimer's Society

If you're able to garden in self isolation, then why not start a compost heap?
Research by WRAP in 2018 showed that in the UK, we throw away 6.6 million tonnes of household food waste a year!
One way to help combat the problem is to start composting, which allows for waste to get straight back into the soil.
For successful compost making, we recommend using 25 parts woody material, including cardboard or paper, to one part of green material / kitchen waste.

Home composting is the most environmentally-friendly way of dealing with kitchen and garden waste, plus it produces compost that can be used as an excellent soil improver.When delegating jobs around the house amongst the family, don’t forget the garden!
There are plenty of jobs that children can get stuck into outside including weeding and planting. It’s a great way to get them off screens and back to nature!
