NEWS: 10/01/2020 - Temporary Order closure still in effect . Sorry!
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.
It's still worth getting in touch if you're a repeat customer for hazel product orders and stovelogs/kindling or if you're very local around the Emsworth area for chestnut orders but otherwise please don't be offended if I fail to get back to you in short order as I do struggle a bit to keep on top of emails as well as keep on top of the cutting and processing. Happy 2020 to everyone and I promise to update here as soon as I can if I can open the order books again soon!

Coppicing is a seasonal activity, cutting is done in the winter months so to best ensure availability it is worth planning those summer projects well in advance and ordering larger requests (eg 300 hazel rods for weaving or 50m of post and rail chestnut) during the winter months. I hold as much stock as I can into the summer but often run short, focusing then on the pergola builds and othercalendar booked projects.
It is worth mentioning here that if you are much further afield than Hampshire, I'd suggest looking at http://coppice-products.co.uk/ in order to help you get in touch with a more local coppice worker or green woodworker.

For the most part my chestnut firewood is seasoned in the woods and split by hand using a maul, because of this I believe my pricing is incredibly competitive, this also means I only have a finite amount for sale each year so it is worth planning ahead and ordering early (August/September) to avoid disappointment! I am more than happy to sell fresh cut, unseasoned wood as well, for those wishing to season and/or split themselves, poa. Some other ideas....

It is worth noting that sweet chestnut makes an excellent firewood when properly seasoned but is best used in stoves and log burners because it has a tendency to spit and throw embers.
I also sell a limited amount of charcoal each year in 3kg bags - see my charcoal page
