The CRT’s CEO Danielle Dewe said: ““This is our fourth series of online talks, and they grow in popularity every year. When the weather turns cold and wet, people are less inclined to get outdoors but these talks offer a chance to stay connected with nature, learn practical ways to help, and ask questions directly to our expert speakers. 

 

“We’re extremely grateful to all our speakers, who kindly volunteer their time. Each brings a wealth of knowledge and passion for the countryside, and we’re delighted to share that with our audience. 
 
“We also offer the public the chance to ask questions after each talk and it’s a wonderful way to learn about nature from the warmth of your home in the cooler months!” 

 

Each one-hour talk takes place online at 7pm, offering an engaging opportunity to learn from conservationists, ecologists and farmers working at the forefront of countryside regeneration. 

 

Today, regenerative farmer Matt Elphick will explain how he utilises and encourages insect, plant and animal diversity on his farm. He will explore the impact of this on carbon storage, soil and cow health, and the quality of our food.
