The great rewilding controversy: what does the buzzword of the moment really mean?

The word ‘rewilding’ has been on everyone’s lips recently, and not always in a positive way.

Clare Foster explores what the term rewilding actually means to us as gardeners

Tuesday 13 April 2021 After my last harvest of the season, I find there is nothing more satisfying than pressing reset. I do this by digging over my vegetable plot to prepare the soil for the year ahead. I feel good about myself for incorporating nutritious compost and enjoying the workout. I then leave the frost to help break down the clods into a beautiful crumb; my vegetables will thank me for this with abundant yields in the year ahead. The time and effort will be totally worth it, or at least, that is what I used to think. Of course, I had heard of no-dig gardening, championed by Bob Flowerdew on Gardener’s Question Time (along with the importance of regularly urinating on the compost heap), but I needed more convincing. What ever happened to digging for victory? My heavy clay soil needs aeration doesn’t it? I know many organic gardeners who swear by an annual digging routine and produce fantastic results, but there is more and more research these days that unearths the importance of life in the soil. What if working with the subterranean constituents of the web of life could simplify the process of growing vegetables as well as ornamentals?
