Planting for Resilient Woods

Under the Action Plan for Climate Change Adaptation of forests, woods and trees in England launched in 2018, the RFS is committed to help create a knowledge hub to ensure that advice and best practice is freely accessible to all who need it and to provide CPD training around climate change adaptation.

To help us support owners developing woodland that is future proofed and fit for their own management objectives, we carried out a short Insight Survey among members who are landowners, managers or other woodland professionals.

We asked whether they are planting more diverse species now than five years ago, and if so what their experiences were in sourcing them.
