A hybrid of #conservation hedgelaying & coppicing - mechanical laying involves part cutting of the stem with the digger doing the heavy work to push the brash over.
The new shoots are then protected from deer & hare & the hedge still blossoms with flowers & fruit in Spring.
Collaboration, conservation and Christmas pudding at our festive social!
Huge thank you to inspirational farmer and conservationist Patrick Barker (The Barker Boys) , for the thought-provoking talk. Lots of ideas pending for 2024. 🎄
