||| FROM SAM GAILEY for ORCAS ISLAND LIBRARY |||
Throughout Oregon and Washington there are several hundred thousand family forest owners, in addition to millions of forest acres under the care of community forests, municipalities, and Indigenous tribes, all of whom manage trees for sustainable wood harvest as well as recreation, inspiration, and a range of cultural connections. Yet there hasn’t been a complete resource for Pacific Northwest forest stewards until now.
Through anecdotes from his career as a consulting forester and readings from the book he co-authored, Kirk Hanson will share his experience and perspectives on the art and science of ecological forest management.
Please join us for this informative discussion, Thursday May 30 @ 6:30 pm at the Orcas Island Public Library.
