NEWS: 18/07/2020 - Temporary Order closure still in effect . except for firewood locally.
Sorry folks, I still seem to be running at a backlog and all my attempts to stem the flow of new orders seems to be a bit in vain, so until further notice I am simply trying to avoid any new orders coming my way. It's obviously very positive business wise and shows the demand is out there, which is fantastic! but I never wanted to get into a situation where I have to start employing people and over extending in volume so I am still a one man band enterprise (with assistance as needed) and I really don't want to be letting anybody down through delay issues.
Covid-19:
The pandemic has affected me in various ways, shows/course etc cancelled and installation orders put back. This means in some respects I am not much further in terms of clearing backlog as I was in March, though some farm orders for posts and fencing etc have tided me over a bit.
Current stock:
It is that time of year right now where I am only reliant, stock wise, on what I cut last winter.
I am out of all Hazel produce for now, sorry, I should have new supply come the cutting season in October onward.
I have limited sweet chestnut stock left now, really only small orders of 4"/5" poles up to 8ft long can be considered. I should have new supply come the cutting season in October onward.
Firewood/kindling: (Good news!)
I have plenty of seasoned and unseasoned cordwood, splitting billets, and split firewood (sweet chestnut) which I am happy to sell locally and can do reduced prices for quantities over 2cubic metre - The legislation changes for selling 'ready to burn firewood' sub 20%moisture will affect my situation come 2022 (it will mean prices have to go up potentially considerably as I join the 'woodsure' scheme (mandatory for selling firweood,). So if you have the space, now is the time to stock up!. Please do contact me with any questions on this.

Optional detail below - for your information only.
The graph below is a useful indicator regarding ordering, especially of chestnut stakes, poles etc, as well as any hazel product.
It shows the months along the bottom with a relative vertical scale, indicative only; tying in when I am cutting/processing last/this winter's felled wood, what my stock levels might be with the most important factor in RED being when during the year it is best to order.
It is for information only and not meant to discourage you from ordering at all but I like my customers to understand how I work seasonally in the coppice trade. It demonstrates why September -> February are by far the best times to place any orders, especially large ones.
