The Hedgehog Awareness Week 2017 #hedgehogweek is being observed
30.04.-06.05. It's an annual theme week organised by the British
Hedgehog Preservation Society trying to raise awareness about the
problems that hedgehogs face, and what each one of us can do to help
them. Have a look in the link above, if you want to help in any way,
as there are some really good tips. Some things are really easy to do
and help hedgehogs a great deal. This cause is of course close to my
heart, and it would be great, if more people would think about these
things and get involved. This year there is a special strimmer
campaign reminding people to check all areas for hedgehogs before
using strimmers and other equipment.
I usually make a
hedgehoggy dish to celebrate this week, and I have made many
different hedgehog ravioli in the past, so I thought I'd make
something different this year. I ended up making hedgehog shaped
polenta snuffling in a nice colourful realm. There were roasted bell
peppers, honey and chilli glazed halloumi, pomegranate seeds,
chicoree, lambs lettuce, semi-dried tomatoes and edible flowers, and
of course the herby polenta hogs. It was quite a tasty plate of food.
Have a nice week!

This dish is too beautiful! I love the pop of colors!
ReplyDeleteThe idea of Hedgehog Awareness Week interests me so much because (although being an obvious animal lover) it helps remind people that we share this Earth with other wonderful creatures and should be extra precocious for their sake.

Thank you! Yes it's important to remember the smaller creatures as well, I'm also promoting the bee cause, as they are very much in danger in Britain.
