Learn About Your Land classes for woodland owners have begun

3/4/2010 The first week of classes for woodland owners started this week and will continue for six weeks. The classes are offered across the northern tier of Wisconsin Counties (Iron, Ashland/Bayfield and Douglas Counties). Topics range from learning the context of your land in the Lake Superior Basin (what trees where here pre-European settlement, what is here now, soils, water considerations) and how a forest management plan and different activities can help you meet your goals for your land while protecting the health of our streams and Lake Superior.

For more information, see the class brochure. And find classes offered all over Wisconsin (including our internet version of the classes) along with many publications at our Woodlandinfo.org forestry website for landowners.

Walk-in registrations are welcome at $10/class. Contact me with any questions. Ruth Oppedahl, University of Wisconsin Extension, 715-685-2676.
