Timber Sale Preparation and Administration

Wednesday September 23rd, 9am-3pm

This workshop is designed to equip foresters with strategies to communicate silvicultural objectives effectively to loggers and put together sales that are marketable and meet silvicultural objectives. Throughout the day we'll have a mix of indoor and field sessions that come at the timber sale process from multiple different angles.
