Synopsis

Woodlander – A Guide to Sustainable Woodland Management contains everything you need to know if you are managing, or intend to manage, a small woodland.

Ben’s inspiring, forest-dwelling life has allowed him to put together a complete package of detailed information and practical examples based on his personal experience, giving this beautiful book an entirely authentic voice. Every page is infused with a deep respect for the traditions of the past while also embracing new ideas, methods, and creative thinking.
