@fossilfreeusa.bsky.social#Hedgelaying involves cutting through the hedge stems almost completely, then laying them at an angle to the ground. Laying the branches down invigorates growth at the point where they have been cut, filling gaps in the hedges and restoring youth and freshness.
@pocketwildingie.bsky.socialThe Hedge laying competition in co Kildare yesterday was fascinating.
Got to watch the teams pleaching & binding and check out the regeneration in the hedges the #hedgelaying from two years ago.
Loved to see a range of age groups keeping the art of living fences alive.
