Episode 2 - Mallows and Purple Hedgerows of Summer

Edge of the Hedge

This month, we'll be taking a walk along a hedgerow-lined path in Lincolnshire, slowing the walking pace, and noticing things perhaps otherwise unseen. And meeting a vibrant purple beacon in the July hedgerow - the Common Mallow, or Malva sylvestris.
Hannah shares some images of her walk with the Mallows, 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.
