Seed to Saw

A number of organisations worked together to produce the Seed to Saw web resource. Northern Grid worked with them to adapt the resources so they can be accessed online. The resource is designed to demonstrate how schools can learn about the forestry and timber industries within their curriculum, illustrating how pupils can learn the sequence of sowing, growing, harvesting and processing wood - literally from 'Seed To Saw'.
