Woodland Management Seminar
Making decisions about how to manage a forest can challenge even the most experienced natural resource manager. To help land owners and natural resource managers answer these questions, the Virginia Sustainable Forestry Initiative Committee developed a series of short courses. Tidewater Resource Conservation and Development Council is hosting the Woodland Options on Saturday, February 9, 2008 in West Point at the Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation.
Topics included in the session are:
- Getting to Know Your Woods
- Establishing Your Objectives
- Getting Professional and Financial Assistance
- Land Use Conservation Strategies
- Forest Ecology
- Wildlife Management
According to John Magruder, the new RC&D Forestry Committee Chairperson, "This is a real opportunity to gain a wealth of knowledge in a short period of time."
