We had a fascinating day today, sharing knowledge and data from the Moor Water, Upper Derwent Valley restoration project alongside our partners Severn Trent and listening to the decades of experience that our local farmers and land managers hold. A big thank you to everyone.

On the Eastern Moors we've been working out routes to cross the moor without getting your feet wet and discovered you can't. It's all delightfully wet and it was great to see the sphagnum plugs are thriving there in vibrant colours, lit by the gentle winter sunlight.

Restoring moorland landscapes enhances them as habitats for the wonderful range of species that live there, from plant species like cotton grass and crowberry, to birds like dunlin and short-eared owl. #peatlandsmatter #biodiversity Severn Trent

On #WorldWetlandsDay it's a great time to look at the bunds we've created on Combs Moss nr Buxton, slowing the flow of water, in a unique collaboration between Severn Trent, Nestlé Waters & Premium Beverages UK, Environment Agency and the Harris & Sheldon Group.

On Burbage moor we are monitoring the growth of sphagnum plugs - there's more planting taking place soon, so we're marking out the areas where sphagnum has already been planted to keep the existing plugs safe. #biodiversity #peatlandsmatter

The wind and rain seems to have given way to some lovely blue skies for us this week. Thank you to the team from Severn Trent for joining us to plant sphagnum moss on the Eastern Moors and for bringing some sunshine with them #nature #biodiversity #peatlands #moorlandrestoration

Thank you so much to our volunteers who today planted 8,000 sphagnum moss plugs plants at the Goyt Valley site. Their enthusiasm and hard work is really appreciated. They were hopefully inspired by seeing the sphagnum moss planted only one season ago is growing well on the site

This sphagnum was planted in the pool created by a gully block in 2018. It's fantastic to see its amazing growth and to know the good it's doing in terms of carbon capture, natural flood management and improving water quality #peatlandsmatter

Huge thanks to volunteers from @ilkleyof, Natural England, Bradford Council & Moors for the Future who managed to plant an impressive 4,000 sphagnum moss plug plants at Ilkley Moor this week. 👏 Sphagnum moss not only assists biodiversity but is great for water management on our uplands!

Last week we took a group of students from Sheffield Hallam Uni to the moors to introduce them to some of the monitoring techniques we use, including dipwell and vegetation monitoring. Could this be the next generation of conservation works and science and monitoring officers?

How could you measure biodiversity gain of rewetted peatland on an exposed moorland plateau over 500 metres above sea level? You listen. Students from the University of Derby with David Elliott have recorded audio of birds and bats, and will do an acoustic survey of the site every Spring

When you've had too much birthday cake already but you carry on anyway... 😊 Happy birthday to us! 🥳🎉🎂 Today marks 74 years since the official designation of the #PeakDistrict as Britain's first National Park! 💚 📷 Water vole - Tom Marshall

Over the course of the last couple of years, volunteer groups have have helped to establish bog-building sphagnum moss within highly challenging conditions. moorsforthefuture.org.uk/the-latest/rec…
