Hi All,

I'm enquiring if anyone knows a stick supplier that can ship to Autralia.

I have used the shanks I bought in UK last year and can't wait 12 months

for my native timber to cure!!!

Quarantine does not seem to be a problem as I successfully posted 2 hazel shanks

labelled "walking sticks" from UK.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Have contacted The Stickman, All Good Ideas without luck plus a coppicer so far

Cheers

Mick

Thanks for everyone's suggestions. As usual you are all a very helpful bunch!

I'll keep making enquiries. I am also going to plant some hazel trees and try my hand at coppicing.

That'll be a long term project but should be an interesting one.

Cheers

Mick

Thanks all for your help. Have just had a reply from TreelineUSA who do post to Australia. The US/Au dollars are comparable so

that will be a good source (UK/Au exchange rate is disastrous!!!). I have also contacted a hazelnut farm who have a small coppice - they are in my

Mudgee (NSW) which is where my in-laws live and also the site of my native stick collection point - how good is that!? I will be visiting them soon.

So things are coming along nicely thanks largely to your great contributions. I will contact the other suggestions as well.

PS What i wouldn't give for Cobalts coppice!

Cheers

Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, the dollar/pound rate makes a purchasing just too
expensive.
