Charcoal and Biochar production and marketing - Kilns vs Retorts: online training event, 29 January 11.00am

This is the second of our regular series of online training events, looking at options for charcoal and biochar production in community woods.

Our guest speaker is Matt Edmonds from Stag Charcoal which produces a range of single and mixed species charcoal widely distributed across the UK, as well as biochar. Matt will be talking about his experience using a retort for charcoal and biochar production. Topics covered will include:

  • What is the difference between a retort and a ring kiln?

  • Which is the better option for a community woodland group?

Come along and join in the discussion and find out more about how your community woodland could benefit from charcoal and/or biochar production and the pros and cons of both methods.
