🌲 FROM FOREST TO FUTURE: Workshop Series 🌲
Workshop 1: Pre-Harvest Planning & What to Expect 📅 Saturday, December 6th
Ever wondered what happens BEFORE a timber harvest begins? Join us for an educational walk through the woods to demystify the forest management process! A timber harvest is happening on local county property, and we're documenting the whole journey. Follow our three-part series: pre-cut, post-cut, and one-year regeneration. Discover how this actually helps the forest thrive!
What You'll Experience: 🚶 Guided tour through marked timber 🎯 Learn why specific trees are selected (and which ones stay!) 💰 Understanding the economic & ecological benefits 📋 Get answers about contracts, costs, and logistics 📸 Before photos for future comparison
Expert forester Tony will walk you through marking criteria and forestry goals, helping reduce the anxiety many landowners feel about harvest planning.
Perfect for: Woodland owners, future landowners, and anyone curious about sustainable forestry practices
