This month, join Hannah taking a walk through the fields of Lincolnshire, listening to skylarks, watching how the wind moves through the barley, seeing swallows swoop over the fields, and taking a special trip to visit some beautiful Linden Trees, to experience their peace and beauty, in Riseholme, just to the north of Lincoln.

Hannah shares some images of her trip to Riseholme on the Edge of the Hedge instagram https://www.instagram.com/edgeofthehedge/

Edge of the Hedge is bourne out of a labour of love, of hoping to help people to find moments of peace, slow the walking pace, and look more deeply at the natural world that we share this planet with, with a hope that by looking more closer, and connecting more deeply with it, we'll take greater care of the planet, and share the stories we learn, to inspire others to connect more deeply.
