Celebrating Soil Health! 🌱 Amazing day with the M&S ‘Farming with Nature’ Grower's Group at Cambs Farms Growers (G’s Fresh) yesterday. Earthworm counts, soil assessments, and a large soil pit – all for soil health. And don’t worry, the large soil pit? Strictly educational! 😉

FWAG East members had an amazing time with Hedgelife (Ian Metson) yesterday, learning the ancient craft of hedgelaying! From history and techniques to ecological benefits, they got hands-on with every step. The end product was fantastic!

It's been a busy week for FWAG East, with some of the team out conducting soil assessments. Check out these two samples: one from an arable field and one from under a nearby hedgerow. Notice the difference in soil structure! See our full services: fwageast.org.uk/ourservices

Beware the land agents telling you that you can have your cake, eat it & have another slice in SFI! You can't sow pollen & nectar mixes as short term cover crops & you can't sow cover crops into an enhanced stubble option. It's lose lose. Choose a better adviser! Janet Hughes

Halting SFI is devastating for farmers. How we got to this position is complex, but can we learn from this and move forward, quickly, to support farmers and the environment linkedin.com/pulse/sfi-deba… Defra UK Nature Friendly Farming Network National Farmers' Union Olly harrison 🥛🍔🌱AccidentalYoutuber Guardian Environment
