Growing Habitat and Biodiversity

Next date: Saturday, 14 November 2026 | 03:00 PM to 04:00 PM

In this Grow It Local workshop, Mel Logozzo from Rewilding Suburbia explores how we can turn everyday outdoor spaces into thriving habitat for birds, bees, butterflies, frogs, lizards and the incredible little creatures that keep ecosystems functioning.

The session covers practical, realistic ways to support biodiversity at home through plant choices, shelter, layering, water sources and learning to garden a little more with nature in mind. Whether you’re working with a backyard, balcony, courtyard, verge or rental garden, this workshop is designed to help you create a space that feels more alive – no power tools or huge budgets required.

As a bonus, creating habitat often benefits your veggie patch too, by supporting pollinators, pest predators and healthier backyard ecosystems overall.

What you’ll learn:

• Choosing the right plants for your location
• How to build shelters to encourage animal and insect life
• How to provide water sources to encourage biodiversity
• How to create a garden space that feels more alive

Who it’s for:

• People that want to foster biodiversity in their patch
• People that love observing the natural world
• Bird lovers
• Earth stewards
