There are a few methods you can use to expand your garden without disturbing local wildlife habitats. Firstly, try to choose plants that are native to your area and suit the environment. You could also join plants together to create larger plots, or add rock barriers between different sections of the garden to help provide further habitat for local wildlife. To further attract wild animals, you could add features like bird baths or hanging baskets with nesting materials, as well as additional shelter such as wooden boxes or rocks. Additionally, installing mulch will help retain soil and prevent further erosion whilst providing a habitat for organisms such as insects and amphibians.

When expanding your garden, it is important to consider the local wildlife habitats. You can opt to landscape your garden with native plant species and provide habitat for local wildlife, or construct a raised garden bed that elevates plant roots away from ground-dwelling animals and their nesting areas. Additionally, use native stone or logs as path edging to prevent erosion and provide suitable shelter for wildlife.
