Learn what coppicing is, why it matters for biodiversity, and how traditional woodland management at Warleigh Nature Reserve helps restore habitats, support wildlife, and create sustainable local materials.
Michael Cunningham joins Protect Earth as Project Manager, bringing BSc in Conservation, chainsaw certification, and dedication to support all our projects.
Ancient woodlands are magical pockets of nature continuously wooded since at least 1600, surviving monarchs, industrial revolutions, and bad landscaping decisions.
Picture the countryside and there's likely a hedge—marking roadsides, giving dappled views. Hedgerows are ingrained in our countryside, yet they're disappearing.
Woodlands nurture plants, wildlife, communities and the planet. Woodland management is the proactive care essential for preserving UK woodland habitats.
Help us create and maintain new woodlands, hedgerows and wildflower meadows! We need
volunteers to sow seeds, plant saplings, clear invasive plant species and pick up litter. No
qualifications necessary; jobs for all ages and abilities. Come and turn climate anxiety
into climate action!
With government funding for reforestation and rewilding tenuous, we increasingly rely on our
amazing community to keep us growing regardless of political shifts. Help Protect Earth
continue to restore ecosystems and improve biodiversity across the country.
Help us put down roots! Your donations to our Land Fund let us seize the moment when the
perfect piece of land comes up for sale. Every penny helps us secure community woodlands,
healthier ecosystems, and a greener future for generations to come.
