RSPB and farmers celebrate the completion of Ouse Washes Nature Friendly Zone project

Farmers, conservationists and schoolchildren in The Fens are celebrating the culmination of a three-year project aiming to build closer links between agriculture, wildlife and communities. The Ouse Washes Nature Friendly Zone is a landscape partnership which brought together 12 Fenland farmers, whose combined land covers 4,000 hectares in an area encompassing the borders between Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire.
