The patch of land between the letterbox and the road might not look like much, but to Mel Logozzo, it’s prime real estate. Not for another car bay, a perfectly manicured patch of lawn or (shock horror) a stretch of artificial turf, but for the beginnings of a suburban wildlife highway. The passionate home gardener behind social media account and new book Rewilding Suburbia has spent years transforming her own quarter-acre block into a thriving ecosystem and encouraging others to reconsider what their patch of suburbia could become. In this weekend’s Logozzo chats with Megan French about her mission to rewild suburbia, and what makes a great verge - it’s easier than you’d think.
