Richard Negus - writer, hedgelayer, conservationist - joins Chris and George, for a chat about the important and oft-overlooked role that hedgerow management plays in conservation and shooting. The episode's theme is the concept of outreach, and as well as discussing Richard's own (not always hiccough-free) work in introducing primary school kids and young farmers to the intricacies of hedgelaying, we also help a listener to resolve the problem of dog walkers disturbing their pheasants and suggest a range of potential solutions. We also read out perhaps the best piece of correspondence we've ever received, from a listener with an unbelievable offer... you *really* don't want to miss this episode!
