Love trees? Learn
how to build with them!
Local woods are the best place to source
trees for timber. They are living wood
stores. Coppiced woodland materials have been used in buildings for
centuries, and they literally grow on trees!
It doesn't get any more environmentally sound than that.
Why use locally
sourced trees?
- Reduces
transportation costs and energy
- Increases
embodied carbon in your building for centuries

valuable building material from woodburners
- Provides
much needed encouragement for the restoration and subsequent
maintenance of our ancient woodlands

trees regrow and provide a fresh supply of building materials
- Keeps
traditional skills alive

great use of natural shaped trees
