4th February 2024, 10:00 - 13:00
We are continuing to work with local landowners and farmers to plant native hedgerows across the Surrey Hills National Landscape, as part of the Surrey Hills Conservation Volunteers scheme. This will create vital wildlife corridors, as well as provide food and shelter for a variety of wildlife.
Hedgerow planting is a fun activity, suitable for individuals, families and friends and a great way to enjoy the beautiful Surrey Hills landscape and its surrounding area. Native hedgerows will help to support and encourage species such as barn owls, hedgehogs, and dormice.
We would love it if you could join us and the local landowner in planting a variety of native tree species for both people and nature to enjoy!
No prior experience necessary!
