Facilitated by knowledgable and passionate members of the Moor Barton Wilding Steering Group past and present, Wild Recovery will share the underlying principles of rewilding and explores how to apply them at different scales in woodland, gardens, water, farms and with animals.
During the course, participants will visit the mosaic of different habitats at Moor Barton Wilding including woodland, wetland, wood pasture, beaver landscape, wildflower glades, edge environment and more. Exploring the land as a case study of wilding in progress, they will experience first hand what can be done in each habitat, when and where to leave nature to her own devices and when and where to step in as a keystone species taking specific actions to increase biodiversity and abundance. The rewilding principles taught during this process can then be applied to any site from a small patio upwards.
Wilding is big news these days, from reintroducing beavers to re-wiggling rivers to making hedgehog holes and using grazing animals differently. It is becoming increasingly clear that we can, and must, adapt our practices to encourage habitat for other species to return in greater numbers alongside us humans. Wild Recovery will show you practical ways that you can help the tide of life return to your garden, street, field, smallholding, parish, farm and wider landscape.
