NEWS: 22/04/2024 - Open for orders based on an order list, leadtime may be as long as 12 weeks presently
Current stock: - no hazel products other than beanpoles, very limited Sweet Chestnut stock left.
Overall limited- most of this year's cut produce is now earmarked to fulfil existing orders. This doesn't mean I can't take new orders for limited amounts of certain products, but will be unlikely to be able to accept new large orders for things like post and rail fencing, large orders of cleft stakes, large orders of poles etc.

Products and prices can be found for general products : Products page and Chestnut pole prices
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!
