NEWS: 24/06/2019 - Temporary Order closure still in effect . Sorry!
I have no current stock, apologies, everything I have cut last winter has been earmarked now for orders and installations I am working on over this summer. I will not be able to able to assist with ANY new orders now until October/November 2019 earliest. Any orders for next winter cut are probably best left until September time, when you are welcome to get in touch and I can add your order to the next cutting list. Thank you for your patience.
Update: 1st September 2019 - I am 'almost' up to date with back orders etc, so I may well be opening the floodgates again very soon..... thank you for bearing with me!
Important Note: Coppicing is seasonal, the wood I cut from hazel and sweet chestnut coppice (copse) is all coppiced during the winter months as this is when the sap is down and the quality of the wood is best, especially if it is to be used for outdoor projects, it also fits around wildlife cycles and maximises the regeneration of the copse during the summer growing season. This also means that I can only hold a certain level of stock as I generally sell most of it during the late winter/early spring months. If you are after quantities of hazel binders for woven fencing, for example, or chestnut poles or chestnut stakes the best time to contact me is from September through until February to place your order otherwise I may not be able to help you until the next cutting season. Though it is always worth checking with me to see what I have available.
So if you have spring or summer projects you wish to plan for, get your order in during winter to be sure I can supply!
