Context et benefits
This project aims to revitalize a declining coppice of white wood, i.e. rejects from short-lived tree stumps.
The establishment of local hardwood species adapted to the stations will make the forest more resistant to natural hazards. The sessile oak is accompanied by forest fruit trees: alisiers, cherry trees and medlar trees. This diversity of species increases the ecological potential of the project, particularly for birds.
