Oxfordshire Woodland Group

The Chilterns Conservation Board are running a series of hedge laying courses this winter (Dec - Feb) to teach people how to lay a hedge.

This is becoming an increasingly popular pastime for people from both the countryside and urban areas alike. It gets people out into the open air where the visual beauty of the countryside can be enjoyed whilst chinwagging with fellow hedgelayers. This country craft does not require great physical strength and is very rewarding in that the results obtained will be immediate and can be much admired by passing traffic and wildlife that will hopefully make the hedge into valuable wildlife habitat.

The Chilterns Conservation Board lent their support to The Oxfordshire Woodland Group to undertake a hedgelaying project in the south of the county during winter 2012/13.
