Forestry Field Day
October 5, 2022 @ 1:30 pm – 4:00 pm EDT
Do you own pasture or cropland and have an interest in converting this land to trees? If so, join us to learn more about how this could be done, the potential financial returns, and how the management of your land would change. The two speakers at our event will be Raoul Moore of Moore Family Tree Farm and Lenny Farlee. Lenny is the Sustaining Hardwood Extension Specialist at Purdue University.
Topics to be discussed include why trees matter economically, how to get started in tree farming, and timber stand improvement. Please be sure to wear appropriate clothing for the weather and the terrain conditions such as long pants and boots. Bring along a reusable water bottle that can be refilled. There will be limited parking on site so please car pool if possible.
