Learn About Your Land:
Classes for Woodland Owners
WAUSAU, STEVENS POINT, WAUTOMA, SHAWANO, WAUPACA
WIsconsin Land Owners
February through May 2008
Dear Woodland Owner:
We invite you to a series of educational classes designed to help you better understand and manage your woodlands. The first three classes in the series focus on:
- identifying the trees on your land;
- successfully selecting and planting new trees; &
- managing your woods for game and other wildlife.
The classes are sponsored by University of Wisconsin–Extension and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR), and taught by experts in woodland ecology, forest health and management, timber harvesting, and related topics. Whether you are a long-time woodland landowner or someone completely new to the experience, the classes will have much to offer. Please take a moment to look through this brochure for the “how, when, and why” of the Learn about your Land woodland classes.
