N2 - Identifying private gardens in the U.K. as key sites of environmentalengagement, we look at how a longer-term online citizen scienceprogramme facilitated the development of new and personal attachmentsof nature. These were visible through new or renewed interest inwildlife-friendly gardening practices and attitudinal shifts in a largeproportion of its participants. Qualitative and quantitative data, collectedvia interviews, focus groups, surveys and logging of user behaviours,revealed that cultivating a fascination with species identification was key toboth ‘helping nature’ and wider learning, with the programme creating aspace where scientific and non-scientific knowledge could co-exist andreinforce one another.
