Farm Wildlife Walks – Selkirkshire

Farming with nature at Mountbenger

Two years ago the Farm Advisory Service launched the Farm Wildlife Walks initiative, an attempt to promote grass-roots conversations around nature conservation and the positive impacts of nature-friendly farming practices.

Join us at Mountbenger in the Yarrow Valley where the beef and sheep enterprises are managed in a landscape rich in wildlife habitats. We’ll visit: hedgerows, field margins, wetlands, habitat mosaics and ponds and discuss the value of having all of these habitats linked together for the benefit of wildlife.
