Hand Powered: Traditional Land Based Skills

Coppicing and greenwood products

The need to manage our woodlands sustainably is incredibly being recognised as key to mitigating the impacts of climate change as we look to make our landscapes more resilinat. The excitement and pleasure that comes with the near-endless possibilities that can be produced from coppice materials is fascinating and rewarding. We help both private landowners and organisation to start actively managing their woodlands to produce locally sourced products and improve them for biodiversity. We have many years' experience managing coppice woodlands and are keen to provide advice as well as practical assistance on bringing woodlands of any size back into rotation.


We also offer a range of hand-made coppice products for the garden and land worker.


  • Hay rakes and replacement teeth
  • Pitch forks
  • Cleft and woven hurdles
  • Tool handles
  • Mallets
  • Cleft garden and field gates
  • Baskets
  • Pea & bean sticks
  • Structures and Sheds etc.

Many items are made to order so please contact me for further information and prices.
