SCARIFYING TIME 🌱🌱

Take a moment of calm and scroll through as Ben takes you step by step through the scarifying process we carry out 🌱

Scarifying helps remove moss and thatch build-up, improving airflow, drainage and overall lawn health. We then re-seed with the best quality lawn seed, the only place we’d ever buy it from The Grass Seed Store - GSS Direct Ltd and top dress. 💪🏼

Please get in touch for enquiries or bookings

✨ Spring Equinox 20/03/26✨
Spring Officially Starts Today! 🌸🌺🌷🌼🪻

Today marks the turning of the seasons — longer days, softer light, and the world slowly waking up again.

It’s amazing to see beautiful blue skies, blossom on the trees, daffodils lining the paths and stunning magnolia in full, fleeting bloom. 😍 Lots of little reminders that brighter days are here 🌿

We are very much looking forward to the lighter evenings☀️🌷

A proud moment for Dowdeswell Forestry as our directors Richard and James enjoy the opening day of the Cheltenham Festival Cheltenham Racecourse 🏇

As a family-run business based right here in the Cotswolds, it’s special to be part of such an iconic local event. A big thank you to Oliver Landpower Ltd & JCB for the kind invitation.

We hope you both have a brilliant day soaking up the atmosphere, enjoying the racing, and representing Dowdeswell Forestry in style! 🍀

Great opportunity to pollard this mature ash to keep it safe and try to preserve it for the years ahead. 🌳 Fantastic job guys!
