You may have taken on an area of land or gained a fresh insight that you want to put into practice. Seeking expert advice will help you understand the factors affecting a site and the best options for habitat management.
A typical site visit entails a walk over, including a rapid assessment of the plants. By considering factors such as the history of land use, aspect, soil wetness, fertility, light conditions and scrub cover we can better understand how to make species thrive or decline. From a one off visit, to continued support, I can help you find a sustainable way forward. This will bring you a sense of capability and confidence to pursue the best outcomes for the land.
