Is there such a thing as a *UK* Ecology for Gardeners book? Would love to start wading in to ecology

Something like this:

Nice to have a name for what I’m trying to create at a couple of sites.
#RadicalHorticulture

I was half-joking when I said I'd set up #RadicalHorticulture as a thing:

Apparently Alan Titchmarsh feels a “diversity” of exotic plants is better for wildlife than a rewilded landscape. I mean, what the?!?!

Have a read of Rebecca McMackin's newsletter for more detail. The highlight is when she calls Titchmarsh “Garden Karen” 😂

My latest #ForestGarden newsletter is live!

#RadicalHorticulture, oh yes

I really think #ecology needs to somehow meld with #gardening.

Rebecca McMackin is one of my gardening heroes, she uses the term #EcologicalHorticulture https://www.rebeccamcmackin.com/

John Little, another gardening hero, has bessie friends who are ecologists https://www.tiktok.com/@grassroofco

Maybe if ecology was taught *with* horticulture, that would be a good start? Start *with* #NativePlants? I dunno, just thinking #wildlife could do with a helping hand here.

Thanks to Benajmin Vogt, Rebecca McMackin, Martin Crawford, @DawnBlackbirds@mastodonapp.uk@RadicalAnthro@c.im et al, I declare #RadicalHorticulture is now officially a thing 😁

* Every garden should be a #WildlifeGarden
* Use #NativePlants where possible
* Create habitat where you can
* Include the human, with #WildFlowers & edible crops
* Extend garden principles of mutual aid into the commons
* Grow edible ecosystems

Is #RadicalHorticulture a thing? I want it to be a thing.
