Why a Garden Estate?
دانشمندان 58 گونه جانوری کوچک را در باغ دشتی در لنکستر وست استیت کشف کردند.
آنها DNA به جا مانده از موجوداتی را که در زیر زمین می خزند - به عنوان بخشی از پروژه حیات وحش Walkways Grow2Know با مشارکت پروژه طبیعت شهری موزه تاریخ طبیعی و تیم محله غرب لنکستر ردیابی کردند.
دانشمندان یافته های اولین بازدید خود در اکتبر 2021 را تجزیه و تحلیل کرده اند و توانسته اند حدود 58 گونه جانوری را شناسایی کنند. 95٪ از اینها کرم بودند، اما آنها همچنین تعدادی مگس، پروانه، راب، عنکبوت، دم فنری و زنبور را شناسایی کردند، از جمله:
Growing and sharing: The Secret Garden
Fully co-designed with residents and completed in the summer of 2022 the Secret Garden includes an accessible polytunnel, planters for food-growing, compost bins, fruit trees, a native hedgerow and even a fish pond!
Huge thank you to local resident, Zakia and all of her helpers at the launch party, who made the mosaics!

Reducing Flood Risk: Lower Clarendon Rain Garden
Following the summer 2021 flooding event the Lancaster West Neighbourhood team has been working to address the flood risk by installing green sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS).
We heard from residents that this space was previously misused and presented an opportunity for improvement.
With funding from the Mayor of London's Future Neighbourhoods fund, this area was transformed into a terraced rain garden.

Designing and improving: Flood Alleviation at Morland House and Talbot Grove House
Following flooding in 2021 we have been working with residents, civil engineers and landscape architects to design better green spaces around your blocks that will help protect against future floods. As the effects of climate change worsen, the risk of flooding increases so its important we address this in the greenest way.
Designs have been completed by our consultants Arup, and elements of the designs will start to be delivered from Summer 2025.
Designing and improving: Landscape and Public Realm on Lancaster West Estate
To address the effects of climate change we have been looking at how we can address flooding, improve biodiversity and create accessible green spaces for residents across the estate.
At an engagement event held at Kensington Leisure Centre in December you told us your priorities for landscape are lighting, signage and wayfinding and planting.

نکات راب برای باغبانی
خاک
نوع خاکی را که برای گیاهی که می خواهید رشد دهید توصیه می شود بررسی کنید. بیشتر گیاهان در نوع خاصی از خاک بهتر رشد می کنند.
گیاهان سرپوشیده
توصیه می شود هر 6 ماه یکبار خاک را برای گیاهان سرپوشیده تغییر دهید - برای تجدید مواد مغذی.
آبیاری
رطوبت بیش از حد می تواند به همان اندازه که کم است به گیاهان آسیب برساند - مهم است که مراقب آب و هوا باشید و به یاد داشته باشید که ریشه ها را آبیاری کنید!
کمپوست
کمپوست کردن زباله های آشپزخانه و باغ آن را به یک غذای با ارزش و غنی از مواد مغذی برای گیاهان تبدیل می کند.
