Woodland Group to work at Moor Farm

24 July 2016

Following our press release in the Crediton Courier in June in which we stated we were looking for small areas of woodland for coppicing work, we were contacted by the owners of Moor Farm , near Morchard Bishop. Moor Farm has about 50 acres of semi-ancient natural woodland in several lots which need restoring. The wood is a mixture of hazel, ash, oak , beech and chestnut. Dave Dann and Charles Mossman visited the farm on the 7th July and determined that with help from the owners that we could make a start coppicing in one area of woodland which has good accessibility. We have agreed, subject to contract, to start working once a month from October through to March 2017. We will also continue to work at Tucking Mill Farm doing hedgelaying and coppicing once a month.
