Kids of the Wild love nature and we love writing about it. We encourage children to send their stories about adventures or experiences in nature and this post is from an 11 year old self-confessed ‘gardening geek’ who has his very own successful outdoor blog!

We are thrilled to welcome Green Fingered George, who you may have seen on Blue Peter amongst other places and, like us, he took part in the Rocket Science experiment with seeds that had been in space with Tim Peake. George gardens organically, promotes gardening whenever he can, loves wildlife and conservation and always asks questions – the best way to learn.

George’s post proves just how much fun and adventure can be had if you get outdoors (and write about it too!)
