WOODLAND REGROWTH
NATURES RENEWABLE CYCLE
CARBON CAPTURE
Chestnut coppice plays an important role in our sustainability approach too. By working with traditionally managed coppice woodland, we help maintain a natural cycle that boosts biodiversity and encourages strong, healthy regrowth. Coppicing also supports carbon capture, as new shoots grow rapidly and absorb more carbon year after year. It’s a time-honoured practice that keeps woodlands thriving while providing a renewable, low-impact source of firewood — good for your fire, and even better for the planet.
BIODIVERSITY BENEFITS
Chestnut coppice woodland is a haven for wildlife. The cyclical opening of the canopy allows sunlight to reach the forest floor, encouraging wildflowers, shrubs, and insects to thrive. Birds, bats, and small mammals benefit from the varied habitats created through coppicing, making it an excellent example of how human management can support biodiversity rather than harm it.
SUSTAINABLE AND RENEWABLE
Coppicing is one of the most sustainable ways to manage woodlands. By harvesting the chestnut trees, we create a continuous cycle of growth, ensuring that woodland resources are never depleted. Each regrowth cycle provides strong, straight timber suitable for firewood, fencing, furniture, and other uses — all while preserving the forest’s long-term health.
