Just logging in...

Ok, so it's been a while since our last post, a combination of well earned holiday followed by a few weeks of catching up with things!

We've been doing more work for the Garganey Trust at Denby Delph and Thunder Bridge Meadows which has involved a significant amount of scrub cutting followed by stump treatment. It's quite physical work but once Maria gets going with the chainsaw there's no stopping her....
This coppiced Alder was no match for Maria's chainsaw skills! 
We've also done another workshop at Chirpy in Chapel Allerton, this time our wooden figure painting took on a festive theme with snowmen, Santas and even Christmas trees all being decorated by our talented participants!
All turned out and ready to go - painting these is lots of fun, for the young and not-so-young!

We also took the opportunity to deliver the first of our firewood bags from our coppice restoration work at YWT Sprotbrough. Seasoned for 1 year and cut into handy stove sized lengths in a ventilated mesh bag ONLY £6 PER BAG or £15 FOR 3 BAGS! Available at Chirpy now!
Perfect for your festive log fire - and sustainably sourced too!

We're looking to supply firewood through some other outlets and will post these on our website as and when they come up. If you live in or near Sprotbrough we are able to sell and deliver direct to you from the woodland, just give us a call!
