Our feature looking at the hobbies and pastimes of IAgrE members when not engaged in their day-jobs. Former IAgrE President Professor Mark Kibblewhite CEnv FIAgrE is a Trustee and current Vice Chairman of the Dorset Wildlife Trust which covers the landscape and sealife in one of the most diverse and environmentally important counties in the UK. Deep in the Dorset Countryside, near the delightfully named village of Toller Porcorum, sits the Kingcombe Centre. Formerly a farm run by a family who used no pesticides or fertilisers, the 450-acre site is now owned by the Dorset Wildlife Trust (DWT) and houses a nature reserve, education centre, exhibition space, tearoom and accommodation in The Lodge B&B.
