Field Trip to Thernberg
On Friday March 23rd 2018 we visited Sandra Tuider in her family owned forest in Thernberg (NÖ) to “harvest” some branches for our first real data-set for our project “branch formations”. This time we took some hornbeam, one of the toughest growing hardwoods in Lower Austria, “only suitable for making wood chips and being burnt”….SO FAR.
