Connect with other Small Woods members online in early January 2021 and join us for some of the most wide-ranging events we have organised to keep you in the know:

February 4, 11am-1pm: Why specify planting stock from Plant Healthy certified suppliers? Prioritising biosecurity when purchasing plants and trees. Small Woods has joined forces with the Forestry Climate Change Working Group, Plant Healthy and Grown in Britain to bring you an event with a range of speakers to explain and discuss why anyone purchasing plants and trees should specify that the nursery is ‘Plant Healthy’ - this will help reduce the risk of introducing and spreading pest and disease into the environment through increase in biosecurity.
February 18, 7-8pm: Firewood Group Scheme Workshop Firewood: the new regulations. Small firewood producer workshop.
February 26, 11am-3pm: Protecting our Oak Woodlands. Our oak woodlands host more species than any other native woodland.
