This is very welcome as it would build on local residents and On the Verge Cambridge's efforts on St Matthew's Street with a wildflower area and the addition of new trees and bulbs. And it adds to the wild corridor connecting Mill Rd cemetery and St Matthew's Piece, which itself has great plans to add more biodiversity.
