This yearโs #FarmSafetyWeek offers an opportunity for a real reset in the way we all approach farm safety and risk-taking.
We can't continue to rely on luck โ luck has a habit of running outโฆ
Please watch & share

A morning bird surveying @DysonFarming Roxholme, Lincs. First impressions are of an open landscape, but the secret to this site are the mature/wide herb rich margins; 4pr breeding Grey Partridge, 10 singing Corn Buntings, Yellowhammer, Skylark, Linnet and a lone male Peregrineโฆ.
WORLD BEE DAY ๐
Bees are integral pollinators for many of our crops such as peas, beans and oilseed rape.
We work with local bee keepers to learn when there are periods of lower food resource and try to fill them with our environmental features.

๐๐ There's plenty going on at our Little Steeping agroforestry site. The young trees are coming to life as we continue through spring, with delicate flowers providing rich pollen and nectar for the insects in the area. ๐

We welcomed Kirkby-la-Thorpe Church of England Primary School to Nocton Farm a few weeks ago with @LEAF_Education.
The day involved a look around the farm, including the potato store, a scavenger hunt in Nocton Wood and pond dipping at Dunston Beck.
