October 26 – Woodlot Thinning Workshop
Posted by Dustin Horton // August 29, 2013 // Calendar of Events, Workshops & Seminars
9:00am-12:00pm
at 434 West Groton Rd, Groton, NY
Woodlots are often overstocked with too many trees and should be “weeded” much like a garden to promote the growth and health of the best individuals. Harvested trees can be utilized for firewood, lumber or other timber products.
This hands-on workshop will guide woodland owners through the principals of two thinning methods, and discuss how to select the “best” trees based on management objectives. Sponsored by the Southern Finger Lakes Chapter of the NY Forest Owners Association. Free and open to the public. Rain or shine so please dress for the weather! Meet at the property at 434 West Groton Rd; Groton, NY. For more information, please contact Brett Chedzoy of Schuyler CCE at: 607-535-7161, or by email at: bjc226@cornell.edu
