Cumbria Woodlands has been working with the The Royal Forestry Society and Penfolds Forestry to produce a new video series called Forestry for Non-Foresters. What's even more exciting is the first video features Sandi Toksvig talking about becoming a new woodland owner.

The video outlines from a new woodland owner’s perspective how they began managing their new woodland. Sandi guides us through why they purchased the woodland in the first place, how they reached out for help and guidance and involved other woodland users in their plans, and how they eventually started making things happen.

This video has been brought to you by The Royal Forestry Society, Penfolds Forestry and Cumbria Woodlands with thanks to Sandi Toksvig. It was Funded by the Forestry Commission Forestry Innovation Fund.

This video is part of the Royal Forestry Society Forestry for Non-Foresters video series available at https://lms.cumbriawoodlands.co.uk/
