Wind-felled Oak
October 2017 : A very satisfying Carnog job was cutting up a very old wind-fallen oak tree not far from our home base. It’s amazing how much timber can come out of one tree but it had been around for over 100 years.
Exmoor Woodland
October/November 2017 : Barbara, Tyler and Molly spent time working with the National Trust in Devon helping with some thinning, in a beech PAWS site (Barton Wood to remove the planted beech – shown here) and through a stunning oak woodland (Vention Wood).
Black Horse Charcoal
Summer 2017 : Since 2017, Carnog has been making Black Horse Charcoal in small batches from hardwood trees, giving a natural, subtle, woody taste to your barbecue. Horse power (of course!) is used to extract the wood from traditional coppice woodland or other sustainably managed woodlands in the Tanat Valley. The small Carnog mobile kiln can also be taken to your timber and the charcoal processed in as little as 8 hours.
Molly and Tyler Start Working Together
August 2017 : Molly, the newest member of the Carnog team (above left), had a great start to working alongside Tyler (above right) at the beginning of August. Molly was a superstar, considering she is still quite green to heavy work, but they had a great session together and we look forward to more pairs action soon.
