Greening of Neston
Environmental Statement
Neston Town Council provides and maintains floral displays throughout the area including hanging baskets, planters and flowerbeds.
We understand that all gardening, from the plant varieties selected and the way they are raised through to the maintenance methods, will impact on the environment and we want our displays to be both beautiful and sustainable. We therefore aim to make our civic floral arrangements environmentally sustainable and supportive of wildlife by ensuring that:
- The arrangements emphasise those plants that can support a broad range of insect life,
- Plants are raised without the use of peat and arrangements are planted without the use of peat,
- No herbicides or pesticides are used in the raising of plants or maintaining of the arrangements.
