Four volunteers who stuck it out until I remembered to take a photo, stood in front of some of the 1km of hedgerow we planted between a field and a conifer plantation.
Four people planting trees next to a tractor trailer full of trees and kit.
Cutting some ash trees for planks.
Yesterday was tidying up our coppice mess, processing wood, even making a few planks.
Today was planting hedgerows on South Molton, a site @protect.earth have planted loads of trees and hedgerows at before. Got about 1km more hedge in and there’s more to go tomorrow! #Biodiversity #Hedgerows

🌳Hedgerow Management: 'No Cut' Period 🪚🙅♂️
Under Rural Payments Agency rules, you must not cut or trim #hedgerows from 1/3-31/8.
🐝These rules protect hedgerows on farms which provide vital ecosystem services for wildlife, water and soil.
Check if your hedgerow meets the criteria: ow.ly/bU2e50YnSPc

2. If we had more scrub and less intensively managed #hedgerows in the countryside they may not need it at all.
Gardens are so important for much of our wildlife as they can contain sources of food that are much scarcer than they should be in the #countryside

International Biodiversity Consultants Ltd - agroforestry
Large-scale #acoustic surveys across 448 European #hedgerows showed tall, tree-rich, well-connected hedges boost bat 🦇 activity. Low-intensity trimming (like pollarding) outperforms heavy coppicing benefiting #biodiversity across farms 🌍

Bright yellow lichen on blackthorn bushes, contrasting with many-sloe-laden branches.
Old lichen-covered blackthorn. It has been an amazing year for sloes. #hedgerows #hedges #wildfruit

US troops make their way through narrow sunken lanes - July 1944, Normandy, France. Most fields only had one gated entrance and were surrounded by high hedgerows, which made them ideal for German ambushes #ww2 #worldwar2 #bocage #hedgerows #normandie #france #normandy #usarmy #history

This week's Wildlife Matters podcast highlights hedgerows and the wild species that rely on them
Nesting Serotine and Greater Horseshoe bats can be found further up the hedge, while grassy hedge bottoms provide vital nesting material and insect larvae for chicks

Check out this fine Bullfinch breakfasting on blackberry seeds here at #WorldBeeSanctuary today!
A very obvious take away:
the importance of leaving #hedgerows and #nature be. Stop tidying nature.
Stop decimating hedgerows.
Wild creatures need wild spaces all year round.
Simple!

They found planting #hedgerows can reduce flood risks, and effect is bigger & faster on soils that drain well compared to those that drain poorly. This will improve future models for natural flood prevention.
Open to all.

Utilising a bottle of local gin from Cotswolds Distillery combined with sloes from historic #hedgerows on our #Oxfordshire #Cotswolds farm to make sloe gin. It will hopefully be ready early in the new year, just in time when This Is Not My Land: 30 years on a small Cotswolds farm is published.
