Woods, Wildlife, and Woody Weeds: Meet & talk about your land with other women

Written by Maddie Eberly, Forest Stewards Guild

The Massachusetts Women Landowner Group (Women on the Land), Mount Grace Land Conservation Trust, North County Land Trust, and the Hubbardston Open Space Committee is offering a two-day chainsaw safety course to build proficiency for beginning women chainsaw users.

Why: To connect with other people passionate about woodlands and to explore what’s in your neighborhood.

All woodland owners want a healthy property they can enjoy and recreate.  Join us for October's Minnesota Woodland Owner Workshop (MNWOW) series to keep your woods healthy for the future. Watch three pre-recorded videos, then hear from the featured speakers. 

Presentations:

Oct 8:  Videos released on YouTube to watch when works best for you.
Oct 19 6:30-7:30 Q&A with featured speakers over Zoom. 

Register today for this 2-day comprehensive training. Work together alongside a small group of women and learn about safe use of this valuable tool. Topics covered include maintenance, sharpening, basic cuts, bucking, limbing and felling.

The Maine Organic Farmers & Gardeners Association and the Lakes Environmental Association of Bridgton, Maine, are partnering to offer a Women's Chainsaw Safety Workshop in August.

“Keep your woods healthy.” That’s a statement that many of us in Extension often tell landowners. Unfortunately, maintaining a healthy woodland is getting more difficult because of the large number of challenges they face.
