About the talk
The Penrith2Kendal Landscape Recovery Project is one of the largest and most ambitious nature and farming initiatives in the country.
Through a partnership involving 39 farmers and land managers, the project aims to create a 150-square-kilometre corridor for wildlife between Penrith and Kendal. Over the next 20 years, they will work together to support nature recovery alongside a thriving and resilient farming landscape.
Lee will introduce the Penrith2Kendal Arc, explain how this pioneering partnership will work and explore what landscape-scale recovery could mean for nature, farming and the communities within the project area.
