Farmers and nature enthusiasts are invited to a special on-farm walk with Farming for Nature Ambassador Boyd Bryce on Sunday.
Titled “Managing a Wide Variety of Habitats on a Productive Sheep and Tillage Farm,” the walk takes place on Inch Island on Sunday, May 17 at 2pm.
Boyd and Bridie Bryce farm sheep and crops alongside a rich mix of habitats, including species-rich grasslands, wetlands, woodlands and coastal areas.
On the day, Boyd will guide visitors around the farm, sharing practical insights into how these habitats are managed as part of a productive farming system.
The walk will focus on real, on-the-ground approaches to integrating biodiversity into farming – from hedgerow and wetland management to supporting farmland birds and maintaining soil health.
Attendees will gain a clear picture of how nature-friendly farming can work in practice.
Farming for Nature farm walks are farmer-led events designed to share practical knowledge on managing land for both food production and biodiversity.
Lasting approximately 2.5 hours, they offer an opportunity to see working farms, discuss management approaches, learn about nature-friendly farming in-action and connect with others.
Booking is essential, with tickets priced at €12.
