Hedges need to be rejuvenated roughly every generation to keep them healthy. It makes you realise that all the old hedges we have today, over 400,000km of them, have all had care and attention over the years and it’s the reason we’ve still got them! 🌳 #NationalHedgerowWeek

We all know hedgerows are good for wildlife, but what have they ever done for us? #NationalHedgerowWeek 🌳
From reducing soil erosion, shelter for livestock, a source for pollinators to pollinate our crops, store carbon to name but a few!

Connectivity within a hedge is very important. 🌳🌳🌳 Hedges often get gaps when they are managed in the same way for too long, such as being trimmed to the same height each year, rather than manged on their lifecycle #NationalHedgerowWeek

It's National Hedgerow Week. Hedgerows are nature's heroes but not everyone knows about their super powers! Tameside Libraries have a great choice of books to help inspire you and while stocks last, you can collect a free handy guide from The Tree Council at your local branch!😉 🌳🦔
Found a favourite hedge? It could be a magnificent, ancient, perfectly laid, tall, long and broad rural specimen or that cherished hedge that brightens up the car park at the nearby shops. Take a pic and tag using #MyFaveHedge . We’ll share the best! #NationalHedgerowWeek
