Ground Control to Ranger Tom

Penny Green
It's episode 32 and we’re joined by Tom Burns, Knepp’s marvellous ranger and woodsman.
We learn what Tom gets up to in his daily work at the Knepp Rewilding Project - everything from managing the huge team of fab volunteers to managing the public rights of way across the estate. Not to mention collecting stork nesting materials from the coppice!
We spend most of our time, however, discussing Tom's main passion and that is trees - ancient and veteran ones in particular, and why Knepp is so special for these old giants.
