Why manage a woodland?


The simplest answer is that management enables you to reach your objectives for a woodland whether those are conservation, amenity, economical or a blend of all three. Wealden Heartwood ensures that woodland management is planned and carried out safely in accordance with current regulations.


Does nature just look after it all?


Woodlands provide an array of habitats from the woodland floor to the top of the canopy. Good management intervention can improve the range and diversity of those habitats. Understanding the different types of woodlands and applying suitable silvicultural practices is important, as the effects are likely to be around for a considerable time.


It is important that woodland management decisions are based on sound principles that lead to positive outcomes economically, conservationally and for enjoyment.
