Hedgerows


We walk the farm today thinking about hedgerows. At the auction the largest field has been divided and is now owned by three of us. Our neighbour is responsible for putting up a fence but we plan to plant a hedge on our side. I think we will also continue this by the road - probably around 100 metres in all. We want to get ahead with this task so the plants can settle in over the winter. We have in mind a mixed planting of hawthorn, holly, blackthorn (for sloes), wild cherry and dog rose.
