Are you struggling to think of a Christmas gift to get somebody? Would you like to find a gift that lasts? If your answer is yes to both, then read on. If the receiver has a garden or at least some hanging baskets, how about some plant seeds? They are cheap, can be found in most garden centres and grow into wonderful plants!
They are also your opportunity to encourage others to Step Up For Nature! If you are not familiar with this phrase it relates to the RSPB’s new campaign, Stepping up For Nature, which will run until 2020. The campaign aims to encourage everybody to do just a bit more to help wildlife.
The steps you take don’t have to be large, and encouraging others to plant some seeds as a Christmas present is just one thing you do. You will be hearing a lot more about this new campaign over the next year or so, so watch this space! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the team at RSPB Lakenheath Fen!
