We welcome the launch of Local Nature Recovery Strategies and what this means for woodlands and the benefits they bring 👏 We'll be supporting local authorities to consider opportunities for woodland creation, restoration and improvement, when developing their strategy.
We want local communities to be at the heart of nature recovery 💚 That’s why we’re launching Local Nature Recovery Strategies, which give local authorities greater control to identify how best to conserve and enhance nature in their area 🐝 Read more: gov.uk/government/new…
Details now available for the England Woodland Creation Offer (EWCO!), following the launch of the #EnglandTreeActionPlan Payments will treble in some cases, with stackable options for water, access, clean air and other public benefits. See gov.uk/guidance/engla… for full info.
Today the first time met @ForestryComm climate change resilience team I work with in the real world not teams. A bit emotional when they presented me with a present to mark 40 years a FC manager. Introducing left to right beyond me, Rob Coventry, Chris Sorenson, Emily Fensom.
Leading the way in their commitment to plant health and biosecurity are the custodians of the nation’s forests: @ForestryEngland who are delighted to have been awarded their “Plant Healthy” certification by Grown in Britain. #GIBWeek2020 #beplanthealthy #GiB
Moving 11 million tonnes of timber from Britain’s forests over our rural roads is not a piece of cake, but maybe it is your cup of tea. Confor is hiring a Timber Transport Officer, apply by the 16th of November. Photo: WHFPdotcom confor.org.uk/resources/jobs…
We're kick-starting nature recovery across England 🌲 Our Local Nature Recovery Strategy pilots will work to create new and improved wildlife-rich areas and habitats 🐝 Watch our video to learn more ⬇️ gov.uk/government/new…
After a crazy month, today saw me hand in my notice at the National Park. An amazing eight years has seen me do more than I could ever have imagined and it will be hard to say goodbye. But, it’s onwards and upwards to become Lead Historic Environment Advisor for @ForestryEngland
Help us stop #IllegalDeforestation. We must take action to protect forests around the world and combat #ClimateChange. Should it be illegal for UK businesses to use products that come from unlawful deforestation? Share your views: consult.defra.gov.uk/eu/due-diligen…
5 additions to the planned @RewildingB Rewilding Network today after site visits to a cluster of farms where #rewilding is underway or possible across 2000 acres in NE #Somerset and two new approaches from people seeking advice on rewilding at scale in North #Wales and #Dorset
We're recruiting! An exciting opportunity to join a lovely team and make a genuine difference for people and nature at a critical moment. Could you be our new National Landscapes Recovery Coordinator? landscapesforlife.org.uk/about-us/get-i…
Amazing how a bit of context can change a story. Here is the same #WoodlandCreation scheme that was causing some concern last weekend: come on #TreeTwitter, let's get this RT'ed and spread the word for well planned, designed and delivered forests. ✌️🌳🌲 northumberlandgazette.co.uk/news/environme…

Snake bark beech (Fagus sylvatica). Sometimes you get them, had to do a double take, thought it was a Hornbeam. @royal_forestry @TheICF @ssf_ic @GrowninBritain @AndyHoward1
"A 500 year old oak ... is a whole ecosystem of such creatures for which 10,000 oaks that are only 200 years old are no use at all" Oliver Rackham. If a 6.5m maiden girth oak is likely to be 500 years old, Aljos Farjon's chart means only 1,734 that size or more in England. Rare.
many congratulations @MimaLetts on your promotion @ChatsworthHouse from all of us @BUForestry #MakeADifference @BangorSNS

Happy #WorldRangerDay 👨🌾 We traveled down to #Bellever Forest to chat with our Community Ranger Tim about his day-to-day working life... and to see the ponies of course.🐴
We’re looking forward to working with @DefraGovUK & @VodafoneUKBiz trialling some of latest web-based technologies to assess their capability to monitor tree growth. If successful the technology will enable more frequent gathering of data & the ability to stream data remotely.
We've partnered with @DefraGovUK and @Forest_Research to investigate how #NarrowbandIoT (#NBIoT) technology can help monitor tree growth and help to understand/support research estimating their ability to absorb and store carbon from the atmosphere. vodafone.uk/3hKvW7H
