Hedges & Edges

The Biosphere Reserve recently had a visit from Jake Sewall, Professor of Environmental Science at Kutztown University, Pennsylvania.  He was visiting as part of a sabbatical study on how to effectively manage edges of land to benefit local ecosystems.  Jake spent a day with Tom Hynes, North Devon Biosphere, and  a day with Rob Wolton, Devon Hedge Group looking at Devon hedges, their management, wildlife value and their role in involving communities in their management.
