Natural Flood Management Farmers meeting
on 19th October 2017 visited the slow the flow demonstration on
Backsbottom Farm to see check dams, swales and blanket bog restoration
and discussed mob grazing and keyline subsoiling. Early in the day we had brief presentations from Lune Rivers Trust, Environment Agency, Natural
England and the Abbeystead Estate. It was a morning of lively discussion with
20 participants. Thanks to Sandra Silk from the Forest of Bowland AONB
for organising this.Slow The Flow:
