Wildlife Corridors

SFT have been planting hedgerows to act as wildlife corridors for the last 3 years. These enable birds, invertebrates and fauna to travel along protected pathways so they can spread their genes over a wider area and use the hedges for food, shelter and nest building, and of course hedgerows do their job of taking up carbon too. 

.
