HARVESTING YOUR FOREST: PLANNING FOR PROFITS – SEMINAR & MILL TOUR
Oct 17, 11 am to 3 pm, Warren County Armory/Civic Center. For most forest landowners, a harvest operation comes only once or twice in a lifetime. It is a complex process with many potential pitfalls. In this seminar, you will get tips from a landowner, a consultant, a logger and other professionals on how to get the maximum benefit in both the short term and long term. Following the seminar and a catered lunch, we will tour a local lumber mill to see what happens to the trees after they leave your property. Registration is required for this FREE event by calling 252-257-3640, or just shoot me an e-mail (pgm@ncsu.edu).
