About 

Biodiversity gardening is an educational website intended for anyone interested in the conservation of the living part of the natural world.  Our passion is biodiversity, and by sharing our passion with our readers we hope to create awareness of the importance of biodiversity worldwide.  This website was made public on Earth Day 2011

History 

In 2011 we coined the term "biodiversity gardening" out of necessity. It was obvious from empirical evidence that biodiversity had increased substantially in our garden due to the presence of native plants. Our garden had been transformed by native plants. We wanted a name that reflected the transformation, hence gardening for biodiversity or biodiversity gardening!
