The Green Green Grass of Devon


Hi all, i've been finding out a bit about how Green Devon is today, i am really interested to see what our county is doing to make sure we protect our looovely coast and country-side. Did you know that Devon is one of the Greenest counties, its aim is to be the Greenest and it is already the number one organic county, has fair-trade certification and has more community composting projects than any other county! You can find out all about how to have a Green holiday at www.visitdevon.co.uk. From Green accommodation to Green activities and attractions you can enjoy Devon with little impact on the environment. Devon produces some of the best food & drink in the world so make sure you sample these delights, you will find many fine restaurants that serve delicious local produce like beef, fish, cheese, cream...
Today i visited RHS Rosemoor gardens in Torrington, it has 65 acres of gardens and woodlands, i found it very difficult not to have a nibble on the plants, they were sooo gorgeous! I also met councillor Adam Symons to find out about what happens to the garden waste that i don't get my teeth into, i found out that you huooomans recycle it by composting it and letting farmers like mine use it. Did you know that composting is one of the best things you can do to help the environment? About a third of your rubbish is food and garden waste and this could be composted.

Tomorrow we'll be chatting to the well-known shepherd David Kennard and his sheep dogs to see why they love Devon so much!
