Research & Education

Use knowledge gained yesterday to weather the challenges of tomorrow. Research is underway to keep forests healthy and producing the highest quality timber. We’re preserving oak trees by partnering on a new PhD project to better understand the effects of management practices on Acute Oak Decline. We broaden horizons on the ‘Woodland to Workshop’ course, where attendees from all aspects of the supply chain are taught by industry experts.
