 GARDENING WITH AND FOR WILDLIFE  

VICTORIA LOGUE

Our speaker for the evening is Victoria Logue. Victoria runs a nursery, Whitehall Farmhouse Plants. The subject for the evening is Gardening With and For Wildlife. Victoria has a keen interest in ecology in general and a special interest in encouraging beneficial insects in the garden. As a beekeeper herself, Victoria will be sharing her ideas for plants and horticultural techniques that help insects to help us.

Whitehall Farmhouse Plants, which was started by Victoria back in 2003, is a nursery situated high up in the Cotswolds where the plants are used to conditions which are likely to be much harsher than those in your garden.
