Hedges
Properly maintained, hedges provide a substitute for lost woodland habitat for many species of flora and fauna; the RSPB estimates they now support up to 80% of our woodland birds, which are enduring fierce population falls. Insects, birds, amphibia and mammals all thrive in this ecosystem, which can also provide a corridor for movement. You can find out more about the
history of hedges here, and about hedge laying and maintenance in our
resources section. We also run one day
hedgelaying courses,and encourage pepole to look at our tips on
planting and initial care.
