The Peace Garden is like a little woodland in the middle of High Town. 

The meadow is full of cow parsley, aquilegia and wildflowers.  We're mowing paths so you can enjoy the garden and watch the meadow grow at the same time! Most meadow species thrive in nutrient-poor soil, so the cuttings are raked off and composted on site.  

Nettles grow around the compost heap (an indicator plant for higher nitrogen in the soil) and we leave it as it's a feeder plant for butterflies like red admiral, small tortoiseshell, comma and painted lady.  

• Help us keep the secret roses watered - join our session and we'll show you where they are

• Pick litter if you see any - the nearest bin is right outside

• Close the gate if it's left open when you walk past

• Build the new compost with us in autumn
