Trees & Hedgerows for Horses: A Species Guide
Trees and hedgerows are more than boundaries or shade providers — they are living systems that support horse welfare, enhance agroecological resilience, and deliver vital ecosystem services. Choosing the right mix of species, combining quick‑growing trees with slower‑growing, long‑lived species, creates diverse habitats that benefit horses, landowners, and the wider environment. This download covers some of the species you may consider integrating into your land, appropriate for the UK climate.
