Full of lovely food? Fancy more? Then join me for an evening of fly talk & fabulous food at the @KneppWilding Kitchen with hosts @isabella_tree & @charlie_burg on the 20th of Feb 2025! https://t.co/WgWYHjHu8M

Regarding the recent application by @NFUtweets to allow 'emergency' use of neonics on sugar beet, this image explains the problem: most of the pesticide goes into soils, leaches into waterways, & is taken up by wildflowers & hedgerows. Only 5% in crop. https://t.co/M3ltdM3U8Z

Fascinating trip to @KneppWilding today. Including to the facilities they’ve developed to sell their meat - which looked amazing.

Extraordinary how the same vested interest groups that think it's ok to release 60 million birds of a non-native invasive species into the British countryside every year... ...are very often the same people that go apoplectic at the idea of releasing 2-3 native beavers

Many cinemas are also showing the Q&A I recorded with @isabella_tree @KneppWilding straight after the main film Check it out...

Gulp. Nervous & excited. I’ll never get used to seeing my face declaiming on screen but the cinematography and wildlife footage by Passion Pictures is astonishing. And great perfs from my heroes @gow_derek @FransVera, Ted Green &, of course, @CharlieBurrell_

Happy World Rewilding Day! I’m so thrilled that the wonderful @ANGELACHARDING has illustrated my children’s version of Wilding. Hope it will bring the wonders of Rewilding to a new generation - with ideas about how we can all make space for nature.

Elect Conservatives again = continue the decade-long policy disaster that is the badger cull. I’ve read the consultation doc and I’m shocked by its dishonesty. Can’t quite believe govt scientists are putting their names to this. They should be ashamed.

https://t.co/nYsx4jXczj So excited to share our stork nest cam live from @KneppWilding Last night the female laid her first egg. Amazing how tender her mate was, bringing soft bedding. Hope you enjoy this unfolding story. It's a soothing watch - balm for the soul!

Do join us! It will be a wonderful evening!

March 6 - do join me and the legendary Angela Harding who has brought Wilding to life with her stunning illustrations. We’ll be talking rewilding, woodcuts and the joy of working on this book together, March 6. And celebrating with some wonderful food and wine @KneppKitchen

My thoughts on the urgent need for better pesticide regulation in the UK. RT if you agree. https://t.co/lKmszvWRoF

Really important research from @DaveGoulson. There are really effective herbal solutions for dog fleas, as there are for lice in human hair. Why poison our pets, us, our natural water systems and the environment? All these chemicals need to be challenged.

An absolute masterpiece!

Study at @KneppWilding indicates more #carbon is stored belowground in scrubland than current models predict – methods to calculate storage in these habitats need further refinement! Find out more: https://t.co/OLSwuUL1hz @NancycBurrell @ElizSJeffers @OxLEL

So proud of our daughter @NancycBurrell ‘s first published paper. Her first salvo in an important piece of work that shows the value of #rewilding for carbon storage as well as biodiversity

“.. the temperate forest biome was historically heterogeneous (>50% open) rather than uniformly dense, which is consistent with the dependency of much of contemporary European biodiversity on open vegetation and light woodland.” Pine, oak, flowering shrubs - all need light!

Grrrrrr…..when will the demonisation of ragwort ever end and common sense prevail? It’s a myth that refuses to lie down, even amongst so-called nature-lovers.

River buffers 💧🌳 If every river had this along its length, the improvement to our biodiversity, climate resilience, water quality and water security would be absolutely huge. Probably the biggest reversal of nature depletion we could achieve. and it’s just so simple.

Wilding: How to Bring Wildlife Back - An Illustrated Guide is a reimagining of @Isabella_Tree's Wilding: The Return of Nature to a British Farm and features stunning lino prints and watercolour illustrations by @AngelaCHarding. It's available to pre-order now.
