Join us for a first-hand look at active forest management! This field day is a great opportunity for local landowners to see how a formal Forest Management Plan works on the ground and learn how to navigate cost-share funding programs for proper ty improvements.

What We'll Cover:

  • Management & Funding: The process of getting a forest plan written and securing financial assistance to offset costs.

  • Invasive Species Control: Real-world results of bush honeysuckle removal, including recent mechanical forestry mulching and contractor treatments.

  • Timber Stand Improvement: On-site contractor Mike McKim is handling the invasive mulching and will be there to share his expertise on all aspects of timber stand improvement, including specialized equipment and herbicide applications.

  • Owner Improvements: A look at hands-on timber stand and property improvements completed around the homestead, featuring firsthand insights directly from the landowner himself, Paul Ladner.

    If you want a closer look at how a fellow landowner tackles property management on the ground, register today to join us!
