ES Case Study: Tedney Farm (AE082)

Two West Midlands farming brothers have helped England’s flagship environmentally friendly farming scheme reach a major milestone this winter. By signing up to join Higher Level Stewardship, John and Thomas Walker’s farm became the 10,000th to join since the scheme started in 2005. They are aiming to create an enhanced habitat for wetland wildlife beside the River Teme by returning some arable fields to grass and traditional orchards have been restored and replanted to safeguard the habitat of a rare beetle. Wild bird seed mixes and unharvested headlands will hopefully increase numbers of birds like skylarks on the farm.
