Nature-strip gardens found to boost biodiversity and community life

Original: Nature-strip gardens boost biodiversity, bugs and social benefits

New research reports that gardens planted on nature strips — the roadside verges between footpath and street — increase biodiversity, support insect populations and deliver social benefits for neighbourhoods. Rather than plain grass, these planted strips provide habitat for bugs and pollinators while also encouraging interaction between residents, suggesting urban verge gardening offers environmental and community value beyond aesthetics.

Why now: Interest in urban greening and biodiversity is growing as cities look for simple ways to support insects and connect communities.
