- Introducing free range pigs into woodlands
- Field Archery
- Woodland Paintball ventures
- Woodland (Music) Festivals

- Sourcing Spruce tips for the brewing of Spruce beer
- Biomass Harvesting
- Stump Grinding
- Charcoal Making
- Renewable Energy initiatives
See our past newsletter issues for detailed reports on ITGA field days.
ITGA also keeps members informed about innovation in forestry technology by reporting on national and international trade shows and forestry events.
Reports on new forestry technology are published in our newsletters and annual forestry yearbook.
