Coppicing

We had a good session this morning and made good progress. The bird boxes were cleaned out, 7 had been used, in 2020 8 had been used but last year was poor due to the cold late spring.  Progress was slow due to finding things of interest including Scarlet Elf Cup fungi!

A huge Bramble was cut back together with Blackthorn, the latter was put at the base of Ash trees which have been badly damaged by Badgers. Long branches of Hazel were cut and stacked ready for cutting into bean poles and pea-sticks.
