January Coppicing
January 2023 : We burnt off any Christmas excess with a hard start to the year, coppicing near the Wrekin. Although the trees were small it was a long, up and down extraction route, so the horses worked hard. The woodland owner is a wonderful craftsman (M T Greenwood Crafts) and turned the wood, a mixture of hazel, rowan, holly and silver birch, into woodland produce including bowls and spoons.
