In this episode, Ed and Rachel investigate the Trust’s work with grazing and pollinators. We start with a walk at Shewalton Wood Wildlife Reserve in Ayrshire to discover how the site has been transformed from a landfill to a thriving site for nature. Ed has a chat to our conservation shepherd, Laura MacGregor, to find out more about the role livestock and grazing play in restoring habitat. And we shine a spotlight on the Trust-led Ayrshire Nectar Network to find out more about this pollinator-boosting project.

Words of the Wild is a podcast from the Scottish Wildlife Trust hosted by Ed Turpin and Rachel Faichnie, produced by Ed Turpin and Pete Haskell with editing support from Bespoken Media.

Thanks to Phenotypic Recordings for the music in this podcast, which is taken from James Ross’ work entitled Landscape to Light. This music, as well as the full album by the same name, is available on all major streaming platforms.
