Bulb Planting in the Halls Gardens! 6th October

Posted 12 hours ago

Support biodiversity, and your mental wellbeing...

For University of London halls students! đŸĒģ🧑đŸŧ‍🌾

Join Kate from University of London's Sustainability Team for a bulb planting afternoon in our Halls of Residence! No prior experience in gardening necessary... just some enthusiasm to get stuck in đŸŒē

Help improve biodiversity by coming along to this bulb planting session! We'll supply all the equipment, just wear suitable clothes that you don't mind getting a bit dirty.

We will be planting carefully chosen pollinator-supporting bulbs (specifically for those keen in botany: Galanthus Nivalis, Muscari Armeniacum, Muscari Siberian Tiger and Allium Siculum). This should help attract wild bee and insect species to our green spaces, and contribute towards a wilder, more biodiverse Bloomsbury.

Gardening has been shown multiple times to improve mental wellbeing, so come along and see if your head feels lighter afterwards!

📅 Monday 6 October

🕜 13:30-16:00

📍 Outside College Hall (UoL), Malet Steet. 

Once we have planted enough bulbs in College Hall, we may then migrate to Connaught Hall (approx. 5 mins walk away).
