What is Coppicing?
|
A little about me;
I am Tony Saunders based in the South Lakes in Cumbria, which has a rich coppice history. I have been in Coppice management and Green wood working for over 10 years.
I have a strong passion for wildlife and have first hand experience of what happens to a woodland when it is not worked. It effectively goes to sleep and the diversity disappears. However as soon as you start to Coppice, it is amazing how quickly the woodland comes alive again, from the bare ground, up to the tallest trees becomes a haven for wildlife once more, so Ynot coppice.
