At Knocknagael Green Hub, the edges are just as important as the allotments themselves 🌿
A carefully curated native hedgerow frames the growing spaces - designed not just to define boundaries, but to actively support the ecosystem. Species have been selected for their resilience to the local climate, while providing vital food sources and habitats for wildlife and pollinators.
From the delicate spring blossom of crab apple (Malus sylvestris) and bird cherry (Prunus avium), to the seasonal colour and fruits of dog rose (Rosa canina), every element plays a role. Guelder rose (Viburnum opulus) and dogwood (Cornus sanguinea) bring year-round interest, ensuring the landscape continues to evolve through the seasons.
A productive landscape, designed to give back 🌱
