Monday 9th September
Another productive day with the Maydencroft Forestry team at a Royal Forestry Society meeting.
“The meeting provided a delightful opportunity to walk around their woodlands, led by owners Robin Hart and Susie Williams.
Maydencroft has been supporting the woodland management at the site for many years,and it was one of the first woodlands Rik Pakenham started working with as a Forester.
The high number of attendees meant that many lively debates and discussions were had throughout the day, including the hot topic of pest control, such as deer and squirrel management, the possibility of agroforestry, and the highs and lows of woodland creation projects.
The wide range of personnel and expertise present at the meeting allowed for a number of different points of view on how best to manage woodlands to be heard. This, in turn, opened the floor to some very interesting discussions that were met with both agreement and some conflicting opinions, which is always beneficial.
The day ended with lunch at ‘The Bistro,’ which was the perfect way to reflect on the morning and to have some one-on-one discussions on forestry as a whole.” said Georgia, Assistant Forestry Consultant. The meeting was arranged by Woodhouse Farm Partners, who kindly hosted this RFS meeting.
We can't wait to see our plans come to life in their beautiful woodland!
