In August, Cornwall’s damp meadows and heaths glow with the purple blooms of Devil’s-bit scabious.
It’s a late-season nectar lifeline for pollinators and the sole larval food plant for the rare marsh fritillary butterfly, whose larvae feed on its leaves throughout autumn and winter.

Yesterday we visited Woodland Valley Farm with some of our business members to see the incredible beaver habitat there.
Beavers create wetlands, boost biodiversity, clean water, and reduce flood risk — all by doing what comes naturally.
