“Hedge-banks and ditches are russet with the browns and yellows of the dead bracken fronds. The distant trees show mistily in the winter air”

Today the group was out in the #woodlands undertaking some coppicing, hedgelaying & deadhedging to create additional edge habitat. Our hedgelaying isn't going to win any awards, but the #dormice will appreciate it just the same People's Trust for Endangered Species Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust HedgelinkUK
Big thanks to Nonington Farms for hosting a truly inspiring day for our Barham Downs/east kent cluster group.Cover crops,CSF, bird seed plots, bird surveys and hedgelaying demonstration with many thx to Mitchell Rae FWAG South East & Peter Findley Farmers doing nature recov'👍
Great cut by Steve Bass to get this thick old stem near Castlebar to go over. Years of neglect and poor management lead to this type of multi-stemmed stump turning hedgelaying into a slow, heavy job it's not intended to be.

Finished my annual hedge laying stint the other day. 80m achieved, it won't win any competitions but at least it's done and I can watch how it develops.

In January we got contractors in to do 600 metres of hedge laying down one of our farm tracks. Now, it’s starting to come to life 🌱 long term it should be a strong boundary and shelter for our stock, and a home for a variety of wildlife. #naturefriendlyfarming #hedgelaying
Top morning out at the National #Hedgelaying Championships hosted by CrowmarshBattleFarms in #Benson . Had no idea so many styles existed! Lots of regional flavour. Will be so interesting to see how they all take. Wild Oxfordshire Lukie Tolhurst Thomas Stevenson Wendy Tobitt 💙
