The National Audubon Society's "Bird-friendly Maple Program" takes a market-based approach to bird conservation by publicly recognizing maple syrup producers who agree to manage their sugarbushes with birds in mind. In this webinar we will explore the characteristics of a bird-friendly sugarbush, the benefits for birds and the forest, and learn how the program helps highlight the story of maple as a food sourced from a thriving ecosystem.
Each webinar is rated for one CAT1 credit; participants, keep an eye on the chat for the link to the webinar CE request form towards the end of the hour. We will record each webinar and post it on the SFEC YouTube Channel. Recordings are typically available within one week of the live broadcast.
