Planting and re-wilding for cleaner, healthier marinas

Wild grasses

 

Trees, plants and wild flowers are incredibly important for our keeping our global ecosystem balanced, healthy and cool, not least because they absorb carbon dioxide. They are also home to a whole host of creatures and insects that keep our food chains and global food production running, and help to reduce the risk of soil erosion and flooding. 

Being surrounded by plants and trees is hugely important for our wellbeing and mental health, too.

Cleaner Marina Tip

Plant and re-wild flowers and trees around your marina or harbour, whether in pots, beds, baskets or the ground and work to ensure that plant and trees are protected.

Remember to keep the local ecosystem in mind and plant vegetation native to your local area.
