Nature in the ABG

Flower Festival 2012:

This arrangement sets out to represent the green and pleasant space which surrounds the burial plots.

The ABG went through a period where the vegetation grew rather wild, but in more recent years it has returned to becoming a well tended and tranquil space where birds nest and bees buzz and is managed by Camden Council as a Nature Conservation Area.  This involves letting the wild flowers (and the grass) grow, leaving wood piles and dead trees for the beetles, and generally working with a light touch to preserve the delicate balance of flora, fauna and people.
