Sustainable coppicing of cramp bark
Good to hear Sylvia, and for info, apart from suggestions in my book 'Trees And Shrubs That Heal', here is a list I added to the Permies website last year after a discussion on coppicing and pollarding.
- blackcurrant for leaf
- cherry for bark
- hawthorn for flowers, leaf and berries
- mimosa for flower and bark
- poplar/aspen for buds
- rosemary for leaf and flower
- sea buckthorn leaf and berries
- slippery elm for bark
- sweet chestnut for leaf
Anne, thanks so much for the post. I'm identifying trees to coppice and pollard as I walk our farm. This helps my thinking.
