Silviculture & Woodland Management
Active and sustainable woodland management can generate revenue whilst delivering positive outcomes for society and nature beyond the boundaries of your property. Options and opportunities are limitless and highly context dependent.
We work with natural processes, regulatory frameworks and funding opportunities to provide efficient and elegant management solutions that align with your values and objectives. We explore your options, so that you can act decisively and with confidence.
We offer a national Woodland Management Consulting service, with a focus on Northumberland, Durham, Yorkshire and Cumbria.
Woodland Management Planning
A Forestry Commission approved Woodland Management Plan will help to structure and organize your management activity. We can write your management plan to ensure that you have all the necessary information and permissions needed to achieve your objectives. The Woodland Management Planning Grant exist to help cover the cost of creating a plan.
Felling License Applications
We can manage the felling license application process on your behalf, ensuring that you have the necessary permissions in place to and harvest and market your timber sustainably and efficiently.
Ancient & Native Woodland Management
Ancient and native woodlands result from interactions between people and nature over the course of millennia. As such, they are a valuable source of biodiversity, cultural heritage, and revenue.
Continuous Cover Forestry and Close-to-Nature Silviculture
Woodlands are complex and adaptive systems. Management solutions that promote complexity and work with natural processes can over-deliver on productivity, resilience and biodiversity.
Mapping, Inventory, and Mensuration
Decisions should be informed by accurate and relevant data. We can produce high quality maps, and obtain precise timber volume data, stratification information, and product breakout reports.
Tree Health Assessment and Management
The challenges posed by environmental change and invasive pathogens are more prescient now than ever. We can help you design resilience into your woodland. We can also help you access Tree Health Grants, and help you Interpret and respond to Statutory Plant Health Notices.
