limb cutting

This is a really good site for anyone who gathers natural supplies from the forest. I myself like to use as much natural materials for my Yule decorations as I can. I also use Natural wood for my runes which I cut and mark myself, and I am also going to try and make my own besom after watching a show on it.

It really does a good job showing and teaching how to correctly prune a tree, so if your going to gather natural materials off of a live tree, this site will show you the correct way so that when your done gathering your materials the trees will be healthier and live longer for your efforts. Just remember to ask first and thank when your done.
Its also a great place to buy trees for a very reasonable price.
