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. This is a holistic approach to woodland management, which looks at the entire place – the wildlife it supports, the natural cycles of growth and life, the precious products it creates and the communities that inhabit and surround it. All the while, understanding and emphasising that it is a balance of all these things that makes a healthy, biodiverse, resilient ecosystem.

The book consists of:

  • Types of Woodlands
  • Understanding Your Woodland
  • Establishing New Woodlands
  • Tools for Woodland Management
  • Social Forestry
