From Quarry to Wildlife Haven with Augy Harrison


Listen Later

The amazing story of how a disused quarry was bought for £1.00 and is being transformed into a wildlife haven.
Set in the English Lincolnshire village of Langtoft, Augy Harrison takes us on a guided tour of Penfield Nature Reserve. We hear how a team of village volunteers are working to maintain and develop the former quarry into an area where wild plants, insects, birds and animals can flourish.
The 20 acre site already boasts an abundance of wildlife and throughout this interview, you will hear an assortment of birds acting as a backdrop to this educational and informative conversation - quite therapeutic!
For those listeners that wish to become involved in similar projects, we hear how there are many opportunities throughout the UK and in other countries where giving a few hours a week can make all the difference.
