Healthy Hedgerows

Hedgerows not only provide individual benefits on the lands where they exist but also serve as vital ecological corridors across landscapes, connecting biodiverse areas in a linear fashion. In Sussex, they are integral components of the larger Weald to Waves corridor, creating essential links between habitats and allowing species to move and disperse across a fragmented landscape. By enhancing hedgerow connectivity, we bolster the resilience and continuity of local ecosystems.
