| The Carbon Neutral Garden is now closed for the winter | |||
The Carbon Neutral Garden won a Silver Gilt Medal at 2007's RHS show at Tatton Park. The innovative garden has been designed and created by landscape architects TEP and built by English Landscapes on behalf of the North West Development Agency. The concept at the heart of the design is the carbon cycle and the whole garden is geared towards demonstrating how to offset the carbon dioxide produced during the creation of a garden. As well creating an educational tool, the designers have minimised the carbon footprint of the garden and off-set any CO2 created in order to ensure that it leads by example. http://www.nwda.co.uk/news--events/press-releases/200701/nwda-goes-carbon-neutral-at-rh.aspx http://www.rhs.org.uk/tatton/2007/exhibitors/showgardens/nwda.asp http://www.tep.uk.com/tatton-park.php FAIRTRADE COMES TO THE SOLARIS CENTRE On 24th October 2008 the Solaris Centre was officially launched as Blackpool's first Fairtrade Venue by Cllr Tony Lee.
