Slow Fencing
What is Slow Fencing?
Typically fencing contracts use new materials and processes to get the fencing jobs completed quickly.
Slow fencing – is about minimizing the carbon footprint by using traditional big wooden strainer posts and stays much like as you would see from our farming fore-fathers. The timber ideally is sourced from your property.
Also, many gates don’t fit gateway spaces, swing properly, or can’t be easily chained closed. With some effort, these issues can be solved.
It’s about re-using or re-purposing existing materials to reset their value to help with fencing.
It is slow work with rewarding outcomes.
