Thank you to everyone that has been able to attend one of our paludiculture trial site tours so far! The 🥬 has recently been harvested and was a successful yield worthy of a place on a supermarket 🛒 shelf.
We are fully booked now for tours, but keep an eye out for updates!

Its #Farm24 ! What better way to spend it than showing 2 tour groups around one of our partner farms to share the efforts farmers in the Fems are going to to farm more sustainably

Twice in two days people have mentioned to me that they are finding Deadly Nightshade (Atropa belladonna) in Shropshire/Staffordshire. Has anyone else noticed more of this plant about than usual this year? In grassland/arable situations? #Atropabelladonna #DeadlyNightshade

Good to catch up with @KeeleUniversity colleagues for discussions and a tour of their solar/wind farm. Also good to hear about @HarperAdamsUni #alumni career progression from the @HAU_Entomology masters who is now looking at #biodiversity opps on #solar & #wind farms.
