Grown in Britain (GiB) is a national certification scheme supporting the use of sustainable UK timber in forest products.

As part of GiB Week 2024 they have an exclusive offer for SWOG members with woodlands in England: Receive 1 year of fully-funded Grown in Britain Forest Certification! This provides:

• Access to news on GiB R&D, woodland management, pests & diseases, and more
• Demonstrate the provenance, sustainability, and legality of your forest and timber products
• Tap into the growing demand for locally sourced, sustainable goods, diversifying and stabilising your income
• Benefit from promotion through GiB’s social media campaigns
 
GiB-F certification is a mark of excellence, assuring responsible management practices. There is no obligation to renew, however it’s just £50+VAT (small woodlands) or £1+VAT/hectare. Please contact Hazel for more info.
