Supporting Community Growing: Compost for Polden Environmental Network 

This week, CAG Somerset was delighted to link up with Karen from the Polden Environmental Network (PEN) to help boost their summer wildlife friendly plant giveaway. 

Karen visited her local Household Waste Recycling Centre and collected 10 bags of 40litre compost, generously provided by Biffa. This compost will help PEN grow healthy, wildlife friendly plants that will be shared with the community over the coming months, to make a difference to their 10mile long wildlife corridor! 

It was a small, quick piece of support, but one that will make a big difference to a brilliant local initiative encouraging people to garden for nature.  Make sure you look out for their PEN stall at village events.   

A big thankyou to Biffa for their support and for making resources like this available to community groups across Somerset. 

Here’s to more community growing, more pollinator friendly planting, and more groups helping nature thrive!
