    Tom Barnes: The Messy Middle

    Jez meets with Tom Barnes of Vastern Timber based in Wiltshire to talk about the realities of where our wood comes from. Tom talks about the innovative and dynamic approaches Vastern embrace in supplying UK timber to the private and commercial sector. The future of timber supply, our woodlands and the biodiversity they support are all under increasingly severe threats linked to climate change, pests, diseases, and a lack of or mis-management - so what's the answer? Is there one?  Diversity, resilience, and creative approaches to growing timber and maintaining our woodlands certainly seems to one approach. @vasterntimber www.vastern.co.uk/

    Esmond Harris: The Now and Then of UK Timber

    Do we even need a public service forestry sector? Can we grow quality hardwood in the UK?  What tree species should we plant for the future of UK timber? Just some of the questions Jez speaks with Esmond Harris on this month. Esmond is an obvious choice to be asking this questions with, as a former director of the Royal Forestry Society. Esmond has had lifelong work in the forestry sector, is a published author, and has spent much time championing education in forestry circles.

    Gabriel Hemery: The Beauty and Challenge of Complexity

    Gabriel and Jez walk and talk through the woods at the Sylva Wood Centre in Oxfordshire and discuss the role of modern foresters in an ever-changing changing landscape. Does forestry need rebranding? A new image? How do we get people to connect with the fact that forestry isn't simply 'killing trees'? Gabriel an Jez attempt to tease apart the stark disconnection between timber products and our woodlands & forests. How is it that we can translate the care and emotions that people have for trees into support and understanding of forestry, timber growing, and enhancing biodiversity all at the same time?  The beauty and challenge of complexity is endlessly fascinating, and is especially rich in the realms of forests and woodlands. If we are to risk any success in nurturing the natural world in meaningful ways, restoring and building up the affinity that people (not just foresters) have for these spaces must be a key.  Find out more about Sylva Foundation here - https://www.sylva.org.uk/
