The HEDGE Project

The HEDGE Project Heathland in East Dorset Grazing Enhancement Project We are a Conservation Grazing Organisation based near Wimborne in Dorset.

We run a herd of 100 Red Devon and British White Cattle that graze pockets of local heathland during summer to ensure a balance of plant cover and increase bio-diversity.We also have 14 Dartmoor ponies which graze the local heathland all year round. Aside from the grazing, practical management on these habitats including scrub clearance, tree felling, flailing and pesticide spraying. The spring an

d summer months are great for wildlife surveys. We currently have reptile, bird and wildflower surveys ready to use in 2017. If you are interested in volunteering for a long term placement or just one day a week to gain invaluable practical skills, like livestock management, wildlife surveying and scrub clearance, please contact The HEDGE Project's team leader Kayleigh for more details: [email protected]
