Do you have a #garden? Build a dead hedge to fill it with life!

#Birds, snails, worms, beetles, springtails, flies and frogs will all use dead #wood for shelter.
All you need are wood cuttings and some sturdy stakes and you’re good to go.

Why you should build a dead hedge:
✨you get to #upcycle your wood cuttings
✨it cost no money at all
✨it provides #privacy
✨you get to support the #wildlife in your garden

A infographic how to build a dead hedge. Create a row of posts with the posts 1-1.5m apart. Create a parallel row about 50-60 cm from the first. Weave flexible, woody cuttings between the stakes. It’s a good idea to put some longer, thicker branches and sticks in first, to create a stronger structure. As the contents rot down over time, top them up with any new woody cuttings you have. The result: a hedge full of wildlife. :)
