GWCT PARTRIDGE PROJECT MIXES
These mixes have been developed in conjunction with the GWCT and European partners to help the grey partridge recover its range across Europe.
Both mixes are suitable for the Countryside Stewardship Scheme. For every hectare pack of the GWCT PARTRIDGE project mixes that you purchase, Oakbank will make a donation to the project. Last year that donation amounted to £9,600 so please keep buying these mixes and supporting the trust.
