Meiluisa's 'Bilberry Pads' Help Make Nature More Accessible

— October 5, 2017 — Eco

These gorgeous wooden pods sit comfortably in one's garden, providing the perfect sanctuary for various forms of fruit and vegetation to grow. The structures were designed to encourage people from all areas to enjoy the benefits that nature provides, even if access to it is limited. The individual pods can be displayed as a standalone fixture, or, gathered around multiple, creating a structural, low-maintenance garden.
