Really proud to be co-author of new book ‘Wild Service’, published this week. We hope it gives rise to a new idea of environmentalism, where reconnecting with nature is an intrinsic part of halting its destruction & beginning the great work of restoration

'If we set out tomorrow to devise some ingenious new form of human-made habitat for our hard-pressed wildlife, we would never equal the wonders of the good old British hedge' - Christopher Hart.
Chelsea Green Publishing

Copies of this wonderous book are available at FOLDE HQ and online via our bookshop link (in bio). It’s a testament to the importance and role that hedges place for biodiversity 💚

A bookshop is a sanctuary. There are few other shops we enter & feel the change from outside to inside so acutely. Few other shops where the inside is also our own interior. Few other shops that hold us so gently, shelter us so strongly & maybe also change us so completely.
