Southeastern Minnesota's forested landscapes provide home to wildlife, income for landowners, clean water, and a beautiful scenic backdrop. However, the future health of these forests depends on care and wise management. If you own or spend time in southeastern Minnesota woodlands, you may want to attend one or more woodland management classes scheduled in southeast Minnesota this year.
Climate change is happening. But how will it affect southeast Minnesota woodlands? This presentation will review forces and historical developments that created our current forests, including glacier activity, timber harvesting, development, and more. Learn what changes to expect in the future and how woodland owners can prepare for, and mitigate, any adverse effects. This session includes presentations and active small-group discussion about practical challenges and strategies to maintain healthy, diverse, and productive woodlands.
This class will be facilitated by Angela Gupta, Forestry Educator for the University of Minnesota Extension with materials and presentations from Eli Sagor and Mike Reichenbach, also Extension Forestry Educators.
Climate Change & Minnesota's Woods will be held in the Fillmore County Office Building at 902 Houston Street NW, in Preston, Minnesota on Thursday, February 11, 2010, from 6:00 to 8:30 pm. The class is open to the public for a fee of $20; pre-registration is appreciated. This class provides credit for the Woodland Advisor program (WA C1). For directions and to register contact Mary Jane Stearns, mstearns@umn.edu or 507-536-6310. For more information contact Angela Gupta, agupta@umn.edu or 507-280-2869.
This session is one of several classes being offered in southeastern Minnesota this year. These classes are offered as a broad collaborative including the University of Minnesota Extension, the Minnesota DNR, Zumbro Valley Woodland Council, and the Minnesota Forestry Association with funding from the Forest Stewardship Grant.
Climate Change & Minnesota's Woodlands is sponsored by University of Minnesota Extension, Minnesota Forestry Association, and the MN Department of Natural Resources with funding from the Forest Stewardship Grant.
