New urban wildlife garden for a community hub
Hi guys, I hope this post sparks conversation, my goal with this group is so everyone can help each other with their spaces. My job now is designing and building permaculture or edible gardens mostly with wildlife gardens also playing into it massively. Here is a few pictures of this building and I have very limited room but I’ll work my magic. There is 2 design potential snaps and a wildlife gabion I’ll use as a design as I have loads of lockers that can be upcycled I have a design but I would love some input also to see if you can level it up with me

Dandelions
This year, as soon as the first seed heads set I'm planning on growing microgreens from them. Personally I love dandelions, only this morning I saw a patch of the bright yellow flowers then as an afterthought noticed the daffodils growing in amongst them, not explored all the herbal applications of this plant yet but I understand that they bring up nutrients from deep in the soil via their tap roots .

Shiitake Mushrooms πŸ„β€πŸŸ«
This is year 4 after inoculation in 2022. Shiitake usually flush from year 1 or 2 and then can flush a maximum of 8years which is incredible for a one time job and then wait. The logs I used in this video is alder but I tend to use oak, alder or hornbeam. Beech and birch can also be used. but yet to try myself. I’ll post a video of how to do it and the harvest over the years Is this something you want to try?

I inoculated these shiitake mushrooms in 2022 and had a few flushes from them after year 2 but wow! This is by far the best yet! Stunning!
