The Short ‘Perfect Charcoal Ready For Bagging’, from Ep 6: 'Learning Curve', of Ben Law’s Woodland Years, has attracted 22K+ views in 7 days, and is still growing.
It shows Ben cracking open a fresh batch of charcoal, and showing how to test its quality.
Ben Law's Woodland Year is filmed over four seasons at Prickly Nut Wood, the Sussex home and workplace of Britain's best-known woodsman. See Through Together is using it to encourage ordinary people to live sustainably.
