Story
Gaze Burvill are thrilled to be hosting another 'Tread for Trees & Timber' at Lodge Farm on Friday 16 June. Lodge Farm is Gaze Burvill's Hampshire HQ and is nestled in the beautiful South Downs countryside. A 10km and 5km route has been devised to either run or walk, starting and finishing at Lodge Farm, taking in the abundant natural beauty in the local area on the way, all the while raising funds and awareness for Woodland Heritage.
To thank you for your support, Gaze Burvill will match the first £4,000 raised!
Woodland Heritage was founded in 1994 by Peter Goodwin and Lewis Scott, who quickly secured the backing of a group of traditional cabinet makers, who collectively wanted to improve the way in which trees were grown, maintained and harvested in the UK.
The small group of environmentally minded producers was rapidly joined by many hundreds of individuals with concerns for our woodland environment: furniture retailers, timber merchants, tree growers and colleges.
Nearly 30 years later, Peter and Lewis’ ‘acorn’ of a charity has grown and achieved so much, thanks to the backing of people and organisations that believed, and continue to believe, in the vision of the two Founders and who have helped Woodland Heritage to succeed.
