Minibeast Metropolis: building for biodiversity A Heritage Open Day event From green roofs to compost heaps, wildlife ponds to dead hedges, join us on a tour of the Hollybush garden to learn about the places minibeasts call home and what we can do to help them feel welcome. Weâll have lots of family friendly activities to join in with on the day; unleash your inner architect and design your own wildlife garden, build a bug-hotel from recycled materials, and plant pollinator friendly plants for the spring. If you would like to, you can even come dressed as your favourite minibeast! There will also be the opportunity to learn more about the history of Hollybush and view our rhubarb exhibition celebrating the rhubarb farming that took place here.
