@mulberrybush @FarmersOfTheUK @WTSWW @PastureForLife Agreed, PfL certification is the simplest certification process that I've come across but I just need to put the time aside to finish. I've set myself a deadline now 💪

@Marc_Compere @FarmersOfTheUK @PastureForLife Hedges are traditionally managed by laying. This is where shrubs are partially cut close to the ground and bent, creating a thick, stockproof boundary and a dense hedgerow for wildlife. This management is carried out on a 10-20 year rotation. Each region has it's own style.

@mulberrybush @FarmersOfTheUK @WTSWW The @PastureForLife team are very helpful and guide you through the process. It's quite simple but I need to sit myself down and complete it! https://t.co/lDrMpy4wbS

Our Wales upland group project came to an end in December @countrysidefund, culminating with two fascinating walks. Geraint Powell at Cabalva Farm, Radnorshire for outwintering using bale grazing and Rob Davies, Trefil, winter grazing in the uplands of the Brecon Beacons.

Elfyn and Rhian Davies, organic dairy farmers from Glancynin Farm, Saint Clears achieved @PastureForLife certification in 2021 👏 They are champions of traditionally managed hedgerows and all the benefits that they provide for wildlife, the landscape and their cattle.

John and Pasty Price of Bryn Belted Galloway beef are our longest established @PastureForLife certified members in Wales. Their cattle thrive on the upland grasslands of the Brecon Beacons National Park, which give a unique terroir to their beef. https://t.co/eT1ZE3KJIY

2021 was a busy year for @PastureForLife in Wales. Our inaugural event held in August at PfL certified Pantglas Farm, Llanboidy was well attended despite torrential rain. Soil health consultant, Jon Williams introduced the group to the fascinating world of soils.

My family and I are very proud to produce 100% pasture fed beef (not certified... yet!) from our herds of Dexter and Welsh Black cattle @gowermeadowbeef. Nature friendly farming is at the heart of what we do, our cattle even help to manage local nature reserves.
