Bringing nature to life at the home of Rolls-Royce
28 Feb 2021|1,215 views
Aspiring young designers and naturalists are being invited to submit their ideas for a new feature in the Wildlife Garden, at the Home of Rolls-Royce.
Rolls-Royce is asking children aged from five to 11 to suggest features that would enhance the Wildlife Garden and its habitat value to local flora and fauna. As well as ideas to nurture wildlife, such as pollinator-friendly plants, trees and flowers, bird feeders, bug hotels and nest-boxes, children can design seats, shelters, sculpture and other items that would also make the Garden more appealing to Goodwood's human population.
The winner will be chauffeur-driven to the Home of Rolls-Royce, then perform an official opening ceremony for the rejuvenated Garden, before viewing their winning feature in its new setting. The winner and runner-up will also receive a unique 3D computer-generated image of the Wildlife Garden, with their feature in pride of place, created by the Rolls-Royce Bespoke Design Team with the same software used for designing customers' cars.
The Wildlife Garden occupies a small, secluded area of the Goodwood site to the south of The Drive, just inside the main gates. Established as part of the original landscaping when the plant was built in the early 2000s, it provides excellent habitat for a wide variety of plants, insects, birds and animals native to the south of England.
Other frequent visitors to the Wildlife Garden include the inhabitants of the Goodwood Apiary, a colony of around 250,000 English Honey Bees housed in six suitably palatial hives in a secluded location elsewhere on the site. The bees are responsible for producing 'the Rolls-Royce of honey', a rare and exquisite natural bounty reserved exclusively for Rolls-Royce's customers and VIP guests.
