Beautiful day to be at Medbury farm in Bedfordshire with James Russell from @forest_centre talking about their tree planting scheme @FarmWoodForum #agroforestry

Christian Gossel presented this poster at the @FarmWoodForum Annual meeting yesterday. @CPRE #Aiminghighforhedgerows organicresearchcentre.com/wp-content/upl…

Great to be out at @Natures_Voice Hope Farm. Apple and cob nut Agroforestry

Great to see lots of exciting UK #agroforestry research happening. Like this one from Rosy Scholes looking at arable systems @UniofReading

Paul Burgess kicking off our Annual meeting. Excellent programme lined up.

Going to @Groundswellaguk? Get yourself along to the #agroforestry tent for talks and 121 design clinics. You can even book the latter in advance bit.ly/3KyknkJ

Some of my lovely girls just chilling out in the woods this afternoon 😍 #CowsInTrees

Exciting collaboration with Brookfield, a forest grazing trial in their native woodland after it has been opened up by thinning some trees. Site will be surveyed before + after to assess impact of grazing on the woodland flora. Brookfield calves will try out a cozy living barn!

Join us on 19th March to hear Brett Chedzoy share his experience of Silvopasturing in the Eastern Hardwood Forests of the US. Lots to learn agroforestry.ac.uk/events/silvopa…

Deer netting getting installed in preparation for 285m of hedgerow and 1,295 trees. The deer netting is being used instead of shelters/spirals on this windy site to avoid windswept diagonal trees, encourage natural establishment and protect willow leaky dams we planted last month

🌳 💦Hedgerows planted on steep contours & high densities can reduce runoff rates up to 50%, preventing flooding &improving the water quality of our rivers & streams. This is by improving hydrological soil processes: increasing percolation, filtration & evapotranspiration 🌳 💦

OK folks. Really interested to hear your thoughts on this. Wild venison is one of the most natural, carbon neutral (negative?), lean and healthy meats. Deer are accused of destroying plantations and over grazing hillsides. QUESTION: Why do we not eat more venison??

Thank you to everyone who purchased the new #Birch Woodland Management Handbook since it's launch late last year. If you have already purchased please do email us your reviews to georgina.thomas@futuretrees.org futuretrees.org/product/birch-… @scotforestry @ForestryEngland

We planted this new hedge 9 years ago and are delighted that this week the laying has started! I’m loving seeing it done and know I’m not alone - good for the hedge, the wildlife, the farm and the soul!

‘England’s hedges would circle the Earth ten times’ We’ve developed a Hedgerow Carbon Code to help farmers monetise carbon uplift in new & established hedges, alongside existing management for biodiversity under AES. bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

SO delighted to see these beasts in these woods - working hard to improve habitat for capercaillie and other birds like woodcock. Ben and his team are doing a great job learning how to manage the cattle, huge progress in a short time 👏👏
