DCSG Hedgelaying Skills Share Day | Bickleigh, Nr Tiverton

As a group we will be laying roughly 80m of overstood mixed species Devon hedge, this will present ample opportunity for novice hedge layers to develop their skills under the supervision and guidance of those more experienced.  There are also more complex sections for those that are up to the challenge, which will provide an opportunity for us to demonstrate how to go about practical hedge restoration, this will be very beneficial as it is representative of the condition most of our hedges are in.

We are a working livestock farm so we please ask you not to bring dogs with you on the day. Food and hot drinks will be provided by the Coney family throughout the day, however allergies, intolerances and dietary preferences cannot be catered to so if in doubt bring your own food.

We look forward to welcoming you on the day – The Coney Family
