\"ScreenThanks to a grant from the Working Lands Enterprise Board<\/a> earlier this year, NorthWoods has added to our inventory of forestry equipment, and is now offering low-impact timber harvesting as part of our consulting services!<\/p>\n

With several fall and winter harvests on the calendar, our Forest Stewardship staff will be working in local forests (including the Lydia Spitzer Demonstration Forest<\/a>) to achieve multiple uses and goals. Our current project in Morgan is focused on creating early-successional wildlife habitat at a scale appropriate to the Vermont landscape, while also extracting low-quality trees for the landowner to use as firewood. Check out the photos from this project, and come to our Low-Impact Timber Harvesting Demonstration<\/a> on Saturday, October 25th<\/span><\/span> to see it in action!
\nIf you’re interested in working with us in your own forest, please contact Jayson Benoit, Director of Forest Stewardship, at(802)723-6551 ext.113<\/a> or jayson@northwoodscenter.org<\/a><\/p>\n
