About this Event

Conservation grazing is one of those phrases people mention a lot in conservation……but what does it actually mean? Well, it’s pretty straight forward, it is the use of livestock where the primary objective is to manage the site for wildlife, whether it be grassland, woodland, wetland or scrub.

Jake and Alex are both successful conservation graziers and will tell us what they do, and how they make it work.
