Description

The project is aiming to restore and improve over 800 hectares of ravine woodland within the Peak District Dales SAC to mitigate the effects of ash dieback on this European priority habitat. Restoration work will involve targeted interventions and the planting of over 200,000 trees. Supply of tree stakes for the forthcoming autumn/winter season. Due to the slow growing nature of trees on steep-sided ravines, we require hardwood tree stakes that are long-lasting and resistant to rot. They must also be produced from legal and sustainable sources to adhere to the UK government timber procurement policy.
