Hedge Laying

Hedge Laying

DCRS's Hedge Laying course.

A two-day course run by Pete Moors of the Dorset Coppice Group.

A very practical hands-on two-days spent outdoors regardless of the weather, laying a hedge within 1 mile of the Centre. Including basic health & safety, tool use and maintenance of tools. Literally learning while on the job!

This course can only go ahead in the winter months while the birds are not nesting and after the leaves and fallen from the hedge.

 

Course Cost

£65.00

Past Quotes

The instruction was the perfect balance of hands-on, guidance and practical demonstration. Pete's good humour, knowledge and enthusiasm made the hard work a very enjoyable and rewarding experience. It is a new skill that I am very eager to put into practice at a professional level once the autumn rolls around again. Thanks to Pete's instruction I am confident that I can take on quite demanding work. "
