Landshare Carbon Capture
We recently met up with a landowner via the landshare website and was able to plant 400 trees as a carbon offset project for our small company. It was fantastic fun, a great team building exercise and really energised our company for the next project......Edible Carbon Offset!
We are planning on planting a community orchard, however I would love to hear others views on what to grow.

I have 2 acres of wood that was totally overgrown when i bought my small holding. Iv cleared a track thru and created a naturally feed lake and am trying to plant native trees, berry bushes and wild grass and flowers to encourage nature. If a company in Cornwall would like to plant or help to off set there carbon footprint that would be great, as im single mum trying to do it on my own! It would benefit the company, help me and most of all, help nature!

I think if I was in your position I'd be tempted to go for a nuttery - a copse of (varieties selected to crop heavily of) hazelnuts - native trees that can be managed to suit nightingales and other rarish birds so great wildlife habitat and a delicious crop at the end so its a double whammy.

Perhaps you're feeling stuck in your ccie written exam questions job. You feel as though you need a boost something that could help you advance, make more money, and become more marketable. Or maybe even something that would powerfully propel you into a different field. Something that could set you apart and make employers take notice. Maybe you could accomplish your goal with more education or ccna certification training, but you're not in a position to go back to school at this point. The answer just might be earning a ccna 640-801 exam certificate in your field or in a new field.
