Will only matter if they plant stuff of different ages and introduce it in waves
Isn’t Devon (and a lot of the west of Britain) naturally rainforest before we cut it down for farms?
Sad that they’re also using part of that land for beef agriculture but excited for rewilding
If that photo is of the site then I question why any planting is being done at all. There’s clearly a good seed source already there and it would turn to woodland naturally if given the chance to.
We really need to see more natural regen woodland creation and a lot less planting, especially when something is clearly being created for its own sake (and not for example a timber crop, where you need certain species in a particular place).
