Coppice Restoration
Coppicing is a traditional method of woodland management, put simply, it is the periodic cutting of a tree. Most broad leaf trees will survive and actually thrive when coppiced. They regrow with multiple stems and these can be harvested for many different uses dependent on the age and species of tree.
