Hedge laying is a traditional country skill with lots of benefits for wildlife. @habitataid.bsky.social shows us how it is done. It involves cutting & bending or ‘laying’ the stems of trees & shrubs that encourages growth from the base - an ideal habitat for wildlife and birds.

Wonderful walk around the Andy Goldsworthy installation at #Rosedale over the weekend. Enchanted landscape. A must visit if you’re in North Yorkshire…
