Day 11
Challenge: Ash Dieback is a disease that attacks and eventually kills Ash trees. It is estimated that around 80% of our Ash trees will be lost, changing the landscape and threatening those species dependent on them for habitat and food. What causes this horrific disease?
Seen our collection of tea towels yet? Stunning designs by artist Maude Made. This isn’t the full collection, there’s more!
Great xmas gift idea. Purchase at our open day & explore our garden.
Not many open days before festive closure, don’t miss out
