Sustainable Forestry & Small Wood Lot Management
Thursday, September 7, 2023 · 9 am–noon
Wedgewood Golf Center, 2131 Mountain Rd. Halifax, VA 24558
Sustainable forestry management is complex, with the need to manage trees, wildlife and the environment. We will discuss topics such as determining your management goals; working with forest professionals; timber sales and harvest; water quality; forest health; wildlife and other unexpected factors. We will also provide information on USDA programs and services relating to forestry management, tree planting and financial assistance. At the end of the workshop we will visit two forestry sites.
Space is limited to 20 participants
