The Master Woodland Steward Program combines classroom instruction and outdoor experiences to teach participants the basics of forest ecology, silvicultural techniques, managing for aesthetics, recreation and wildlife habitat, business decision and planning tools as well as sources for technical and financial assistance.
Whether your forestland provides profit or pleasure you can gain valuable skills and knowledge that will help you become a better steward of your woodlands.
