Buckram Wood – Gloucestershire Division

The main theme of the day is woodland management for small woodland parcels and new woodland creation schemes.

Birdwood Coppice, Forest of Dean, GL19 3ED

In the morning, our hosts will be joint owners Dr. Denise Taylor and Shea McCord and, in afternoon, we will be in the capable hands of Robbie Barnes (FC Woodland Officer). The focus of the morning meeting will be to address opportunities and constraints associated with managing small woodlands. We’ll have a picnic lunch in the wood and it may be helpful to bring your own picnic chairs.
After lunch Robbie will host discussions relating to new woodland creation schemes detailing species choice and associated financial grants available.
