Biodiversity Tips from Knepp Wilding with Charlie Harpur and Adam Nicolson - Episode 165

grow, cook, eat, arrange with Sarah Raven & friends

Knepp plays host to one of the most breathtaking rewilding projects in Britain, and from it we can take such inspiration to channel into our own green spaces.
Sharing the evolution of the project from its initial thousand species and how you can encourage biodiversity in your garden is Charlie Harpur - Knepp’s Head Gardener joins Sarah this week alongside her husband, Adam Nicolson.
In this episode, discover:

• How much or how little control you should impose on a garden that’s being rewilded
• Charlie’s work with Tom Stuart-Smith, Jekka McVicar and James Hitchmough
• Knepp’s work on balancing what each plant provides, not allowing dominant species to run rampant
• Why we at home should focus on succession throughout the year
