Scottish Native Woods joined forces with the Argyll Island Native Woodland Project to organise a woodland grazing workshop on Mull. The workshop looked at the benefits of conservation grazing in Atlantic hazelwoods. Some Atlantic hazelwoods have "glue fungi", causing bits of deadwood to stick to living trees.
We also took delegates to a wood with hazel glove fungi. This is a Species Action Framework species, a weird looking flagship for Atlantic hazelwoods!
A good mixed audience of farmers, foresters and conservationists came together to discuss woodland grazing. Here are some of them framed by the massive branch of a veteran oak tree, which bears witness to a history of wood pasture.
