Eco-Design

Creating gardens for the future using organic, environmentally friendly products and re-using existing materials to minimise your carbon footprint.

Global climate change is the single biggest environmental threat facing the planet – visit www.foe.co.uk for more information.

What can we do?

• Use more recycled or alternative products and less concrete based products
• Conserve water when building and install a water butt for watering the plants
• Use timber with the FSC stamp
• Buy local products instead of imported products
• Install solar power instead of running power through the mains for lighting and water pumps
• Re-use existing materials where possible
• Plant more trees and shrubs
