Women Owning Woodlands VT Presents
The Nuts and Bolts of Forest Management:
What to Expect When Conducting Forest Management on your Land
Saturday, March 19th, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Join Women Owning Woodlands Vermont (WOW VT) to visit a forest management project being implemented in the Hinesburg Town Forest. Together we'll explore the ins and outs of this project with Ethan Tapper, Chittenden County Forester, and WOW Team members Andrea Shortsleeve, Habitat Biologist with VT Fish and Wildlife, and Caitlin Cusack, Forester with VT Land Trust, as our guides. We’ll cover tree identification, wildlife habitat improvements, logging equipment, layout of woods roads to protect soil and water quality, marking trees using science-based principals, and address any other questions you may have. WOW VT programs are tailored towards those who identify as female, but all are welcome to participate.
To join the walk, register here. We will meet at 10:00 am on Saturday, March 19 at the HTF trailhead on Hayden Hill Road East, 0.3 miles from the intersection with Texas Hill Road.
