Mini Wildlife Gardens

An activity with Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park Events

Activity date: Thursday 13th August 2026

Start time: 11:00
Finish time: 15:00

Activity description

Come along to create a mini wildlife garden that you can take home. Using natural materials and mini plants, we will show you how to put together a small decorative garden you can nurture for the rest of the year. You will also have the chance to explore a larger version of a wildlife garden in our Mudlarks Boulevard and get inspiration from there. The sessions are taking place outdoors from 11am-12pm and 2-3pm; a ‘plan B’ for a rainy day is in place. Sessions are free, and no booking is required. We will meet at the gatehouse at 11am and 2pm and we recommend arriving at the start time. Stick around in the park and complete the quiz or the younger children’s trail for more interesting facts about plants.
