I made my first dead hedge over the winter. It’s such a great way of getting rid of waste wood.I think it looks just wonderful. Great video 👍

Aaah, wonderful! I hope that you enjoyed the process as much as we do, Helen... We love that its a "3 jobs in one" activity,.. Cutting what isn't needed and transforming it into a lovely dead-hedge that is needed, plus, in the process, generally tidying up everything as you go! :)

Hello! Just love your channel. As a generational northern New Englander we share many of the same methods . Now in N W Florida , with this island being discovered, I am flabbergasted by their insane management of allll flora and fauna. Yes dead hedging is the way! The hedge is always lovely and useful. Again, thank you kindly. Kelsey

Thankyou so much! Totally agree with dead hedging 😉

Great video. We love dead hedging too. In fact we have plans to create a dead hedge alongside the track that borders our woodland. Looking forward to doing it. Thankyou for sharing . Diane (woodland tales)

Oh hazel wood is beautiful. I miss my woodlands and fields of far Northern Vermont, but my daughter and Mathew are on the vast lands readying now for sugaring and not sleeping whilst the sap runs!

This was a fun video. Thanks for sharing. I started thinking to make piles, but I'll try the cut wood hedge/fence too!

That was really helpful. Thanks 🙏🏻.

Thank you so much Gitte! We hope that you are in a position to create your own dead-hedge and contribute towards the creation of a wonderful habitat for so many creatures, large and small?

you'll have to make it high enough as goats love to be on top of things!

I have a ton of pendulous sedge and brambles that I’m clearing I’m adding that making a sedge hedge? Haha, not much wood at the moment but I’m thinking it will be still valuable to wildlife, insects mammals etc

Very true! Wattle is lovely and we intend to do some, however dead hedges are great for all those dead and cut branches, and garden waste
