###  About Confolens forest 









###  About Confolens forest 







We are planting a mixed forest that will be managed according to the principles of irregular high forest on these former agricultural plots that could not find a buyer.  
  
Located in the north, equidistant from Limoges and Angoulême, the small town of Confolens is situated in the heart of a region with a long history of agriculture. A land of vineyards and pastures, Charente produces the grapes used to make cognac, but remains less forested than the neighbouring Dordogne department. It is therefore appropriate to plant a new forest here, which will allow a rich ecosystem to develop.   
  
On these former agricultural plots of some 6 hectares, there are hedges that we will preserve, as well as the habitat trees that have their place in a mixed forest.

After tilling the soil to ensure optimal growth, young plants will be planted according to the following distribution: - **Plot 1**: [Downy oak](/en/species/42) (70%), [Atlas cedar](/en/species/24) (20%), Checker tree (10%)
- **Plot 2**: Atlas cedar (70%), Turkey oak (20%), Hungarian oak (10%)
- **Plot 3**: [Maritime pine](/en/species/7) (70%), Downy oak (20%), Pubescent oak (10%)

  
  
We will apply [Trico](https://ecotree.green/en/blog/how-to-protect-trees-with-trico-a-natural-animal-repellent) to the young trees twice a year during the first few years after planting to protect the young trees from browsing by game.
