A survey by Yorkshire Bank reveals one in three British adults (33 per cent) are returning to live off the fat of the land like Tom and Barbara from the hit 70’s TV show, The Good Life.
The British public cites economic and environmental reasons for them becoming meaner and greener in the garden; one in three agree that they can save money by having greener fingers and one in ten even admit to using an old wellington boot as a water butt.
There are many simple and effective steps Britain’s gardeners can take to make their gardens environmentally friendly, such as growing their own fruit and vegetables, installing a water butt to collect rain water, making their own compost and avoiding buying compost containing peat; making habitats for wildlife or even creating a wormery; which is a great way to recycle kitchen waste if there’s no room for a compost heap.
The survey revealed that 64 per cent of people believe that providing home composting kits and free garden waste collection schemes would encourage people to be more eco-friendly in their gardens.
