Not 100% this is the correct section for this, so if any fellow admin want to move it please do.
This is great but I had no idea it was a thing. It helps the environment and small businesses and is great support for your beans  .

Great idea and I do love a coppice!
I'm doing my bit by harvesting bamboo from my neighbour's orchard. Give it a couple more years and the four metre plus monsters will have made it to our patch of their own volition!

I have enough bamboo now that the clump has been cut down for a lifetime - but I also coppice the hazel in the hedge every few years.
The coppice people are competing with the cheap shops and their canes and that's going to be hard going. I wish them luck.

We copiced our hazel bushes last month. It took a couple of days to clear the stems - some seem a bit thick. I will have to shave/sharpen the ends to get them in the ground. We haven't don't it for a couple of years - too many jobs to do and some slip the net!
I didn't know you could buy them.
