The webinar has been moved to only a remote delivery through Zoom. The in-person viewing of the panel discussion has been cancelled, and the follow-on field tour has been postponed.
Lane Johnson with the Cloquet Forestry Center will facilitate a panel discussion with practitioners from federal and non-profit backgrounds. They'll discuss their approaches to leveraging limited capacity for burning; preparing timber stand project areas for prescribed fire; reducing barriers to get more fire on the ground; and developing agreement. After the webinar, we'll continue the conversation in the woods as we walk the grounds of the Cloquet Forestry Center and visit some recently burned stands.
Cost: Viewing the webinar remotely is free. In-person attendance of the discussion and follow-on field tour is $35 for members, $60 for non members, and $20 for students. Lunch is included in the registration cost.
Accessibility: We will be indoors at the Cloquet Forestry Center for the discussion; afterwards, we will visit two stops in the field. A nursing mother room is available; for this and other accommodations reach out to Lane Moser at [email protected].
