Woodland Creation & Delivery
Strong UK government focus on increasing woodland cover means there’s never been a better time to plant trees. You may want them as shelter on your farm; to create a wood of your own for commercial timber output or for multiple outputs.
Whatever the reason, Dunnewoods can assist with full site surveys and choosing the right tree for the objectives, complete woodland design to meet the UK Forest Standard, stakeholder consultation and full budgeting of the project.
Advice on tree provenance, building resilient woodland and the management of tree planting and maintenance can also be provided.
