In this episode of Rewilding in Action, host Maureen Howard is back on Otago Peninsula again to meet with Paula Cross who along with her husband Brendan farm 880 ha of the predominantly steep hill country they own and lease there. Join me to find out from my guest what it’s like to combine rewilding native forest with farming, how cutting back Muehlenbeckia australis in the native forest has impacted it, and why we might want to keep some of the non-native trees and shrubs until the native forest gets established.
