Over the course of the day, we will cover:

- Useful hand-tools & techniques for cutting & processing coppice.

- How to present cut material effectively in ‘drifts’.

- How to increase coppice stock through replanting and/or layering.

- How to begin processing coppice rods into saleable products.

- How to extract coppice material & how to ‘leave’ the ‘coup’.
