Nursery Street Pocket Park

Central Sheffield teamed up with the Friends of Sheffield City Centre to create a partnership with Sheffield City Council Parks Sheffield

A new perennial wildflower meadow area has been created in Nursery Street Pocket Park. Together, we prepared the ground and laid wildflower turf to enhance nature.

Jointly funded by Central LAC City Ward and the Parks Service, the biodiversity and resilient turf called Treasure Chest includes 29 different perennial species which will flower from March to September.

It has been developed by Sheffield’s own The Green Estate Community Interest Company who recently received The King’s Award for Enterprise and Sustainable Development.

The transformation of the area has been remarkable. Please take a look at the before and after

A massive Thank You to Bridget Ingle and the brilliant volunteers for their vision .

Great partnership work with local volunteers and Sheffield City Council creating new #wildlife#habitats with innovative wildflower turf developed in Sheffield.
