Rewilding....for Busy Pollinators 


Yonder sky that has wept tears of compassion upon my people for centuries untold, and which to us appears changeless and eternal, may change. Chief Seattle- Chief of the Suquamish & Duwamish peoples. mid 1800.

Inspired by COP26, culminating in the fourth eco-project, our Earth art local  creatives collaboration commences 1st-13th May. The intention to gain a deepening awarness of the impact that toxic pesticides and herbicides currently have on pollinators - Bees, birds and butterflies,when chemicals are used to manipulate natural habitats. Unfortunatley the act is detrimental to the very systems we also depend.Themed images include,various artworks, a bee hive installation on honey beekeeping, quotes and poetry.

The project also encourages people in the local community to participate by taking away a sunflower plant to grow for pollinators over the summer months - cultivating an awarness albeit "small" yet encourages positive meaningful action. We hope for a further  collage display to be held, sharing community Sunflower images in the autumn.
