Biodiversity
At STEM, we pride ourselves on creating gardens and environments that provide opportunities for wildlife to flourish.
We have so much fun being out on site and experiencing first hand some of the biodiversity that our projects support. We also love getting out into nature and seeing these creatures in their natural habitat.
