About the event

Jane and Calum Thomson of Brick Kiln Farm, Westleton have been farming 135 acres of the Suffolk Sandlings for over 10 years, focusing on increasing biodiversity and creating habitats for wildlife whilst managing a small flock of rare breed sheep. Their most recent project is the restoration of part of Rookyard Wood, which started in the Autumn of 2022 with expert guidance from Suffolk Wildlife Trust’s farm advisory service. Jane will talk about the farm and the woodland restoration project.
