If you own forested land and haven’t made other plans for the weekend, consider this event: the Oregon-Washington Family Forest Owners Field Day, at the Plas Newydd Tree Farm, Ridgefield, Clark County, on August 28. Gates open at 8:00 a.m.
DNR, Washington State University Extension, Oregon State University Extension Service and many other partners are offering this field day to help forest landowners in Southwest Washington and Northwest Oregon learn how to take better care of their land. Find practical, how-to information on planning, protecting and enhancing your forestland and its resources.
During this full-day event, you’ll have the opportunity to participate in educational programs conducted by many of the region’s recognized forest experts. Among the instructors will be DNR staff teaching you about forest health, Native American uses of the land, reforestation, caring for young trees, and riparian management.
Registration is $30 per person or $40 per family on the day of the event. A barbecue lunch also is available if ordered in advance.
For more information, including a presentation schedule, see the Washington State University Extension Forestry and Wildlife web page or call (509) 667-6540 or view the event brochure.
