Episode 24: Hedgerows And FWAG

In this episode Chris Skinner and Matthew Gudgin explore the history and importance of hedgerows in the UK. Chris describes how the landscape has changed over time, with hedgerows being removed and then replanted to recreate wildlife corridors. He ponders his own role in this process and shows deep remorse for removing hedgerows in his younger years. Chris highlights the Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group (FWAG), an organisation that aims to balance the needs of farmers and conservationists. They answer questions from listeners about building ponds and bird identification.Click here to download the MP3 file of this episode.Chris Skinner's Countryside Podcast was produced by SOUNDYARD - a non-profit company on a mission to turn up the volume on under-heard voices.
