Forestry School Workshops

The Vermont Woodlands Association invites you to attend their upcoming
Forestry Schools targeted towards specific audiences of landowners and tree
farmers. If you are a new or next generation landowner or if you just enjoy
learning about management of our forest resource, then check out our
workshops and register today.

Forestry School for the Next Generation Forest Landowners and Tree Farmers
will be held on July 28 in North Clarendon, VT from 8:30am to 2:30pm. Do you
know what your family wants for the future of your family land? Will you be
ready to take the reins? As the stewards of our future, we want you to be
excited about the forest legacy that the present generation will entrust to
you. We'd like to help you prepare for protecting and stewarding our
treasured forest resource so that it does not become just a memory.
Regardless of age, take advantage of this opportunity to meet others and
learn how you can be actively engaged in protecting your family's legacy.
There is no charge for this workshop.
