Plant Health:
The threat to our trees from pests and diseases is increasing. Climate change, global travel and the international trade in plants and wood products can increase pests and diseases and their impacts.
Pests and diseases can spread rapidly, damaging different parts of the tree and affecting timber quality.
Taking tree health seriously helps us keep our forests healthy and flourishing for wildlife and people alike. Our forestry managers are trained to identify pests and diseases and to manage operations in accordance with Statutory Plant Health Notice rules should the need arise.
Woodland restoration and regeneration:
We have also been involved with many woodland restoration and regeneration projects including native Caledonian Pine and Atlantic Oakwood. If you have a valuable woodland remnant, we can provide the help and expertise to restore it for the next generation.
