Everything for your biodiverse garden
Rootsum's three stepping stones
We're here to help you create a biodiverse garden, step by step.
Â
Never use poison
Poison also kills bees, bumblebees, and helpful creatures in your garden. Use biological pest control as an alternative to poison in case of an infestation.
Never use chemical fertilizers
These kill the soil life. Create living soil with plant-based alternatives, and no-till or no-dig methods.

Every garden counts
Make sure that your garden counts. Add your garden to the map to help connect natural corridors where there are missing links.
Our gardens as stepping stones
Strengthening biodiversity in gardens and parks creates ecological connections that allow animals and insects to move through urban areas. In this way, we strengthen the ecosystem of an entire region.
Does your garden actually count?
With a few simple choices, you can drastically improve the biodiversity in your garden.Â
- Never use poison. Even organic, "ecological," or natural poisons indiscriminatey kill insects, including the natural enemies of the pest insects attacking your plants.
- Never use chemical fertilizers.
- Create a natural garden with food, drink and nesting opportunities.
Turn your garden into a vital piece of the puzzle
Help us map out which nature reserves are not yet connected with one another. Maybe your garden is the missing link in building a natural corridor for insects and mammals.Â
