You are invited to join our practical coppicing events at Whittle Dene woods. The events will be led by Mark Shipperlee from Living Woods North East CIC.
Date and time
Two events will take place on:
Saturday 29th January and Wednesday 9th February 2022, meeting at Whittle Mill at 10am.
What to bring
You are required to bring your own lunch and refreshments, good working clothes and suitable footwear. You may bring your own tools (loppers, pruning saw, bow saw, billhook, etc.), however all equipment will be provided.
What we will do
We will coppice the hazel stools in the Woodland Trust area of Whittle Dene woodland, and mainly use the cut material to protect the stools against deer damage.
