Our North Pennines woodlands offer year-round food and shelter for wildlife, economic opportunities and beautiful spaces for us to enjoy. Join us to learn practical management skills, including:

• Planting and aftercare of new trees
• Managing a woodland for wildlife
• Coppicing, thinning and management of difficult sites
• Growing an income from woodland products
• Tree diseases and bio-security

After meeting at Allendale Village Hall by 10am, the day will be mostly outdoors with site visits to different woodlands and some practical work. Please bring a packed lunch.

It might be best to wear warm, waterproof clothing (depending on the weather) and some strong, comfortable footwear.
