The above photo (by Ann Blackburn) is of a field in the Midgley area that now contains a rich hay meadow flora, in part, as a result of the work of the Calderdale Seeds Project. With around 20 hectares of land already in the project and several more coming on board the CSP is making a significant difference to the in bye land in the Luddenden Valley which will hopefully benefit Twite amongst a range of other wildlife. None of this would have been possible without the support of several people and organisations especially the Green Business Network, Ann Blackburn and the Calderdale Bird Conservation Group who are the lead partner. Thanks in particular must go to those landowners that have taken to the idea so enthusiastically.Friday, June 05, 2009

Hi all
Hopefully the seeding will benifit all wildlife in Calderdale eventually. In the meantime its an uplift to the soul to see at least some of the Pennines restored to its former beauty, absolutely stunning.
A fine sight.well done to all involved.
