Organic Propagation: DIY perennials and the challenges of setting up a field-scale forest nursery

An in-depth look at various ways to propagate perennials in an organic system. Dave Washington of Taw Valley Organics takes us through propagating from seed, transplants, cuttings, grafting, division and non soil-based methods, with clarity over how to convert cuttings from non-organic plants to organic. With increasing interest in agroforestry and net zero aspirations using woodland plantings, how can this be achieved organically on a field scale? Richard and Keith of Organic Hedging and Trees share their passion for trying to achieve this including a new project establishing an organic field-scale forest nursery under Soil Association organic standards.
