Planning A Forest Farm (Virtual)
Discover how forests can produce more than timber at this engaging program on forest farming. Forest farming is the intentional stewardship and cultivation of harvestable, non-timber forest products such as maple syrup, ginseng, ramps, and mushroom logs. Participants will gain a practical introduction to starting and managing a forest farm, including site selection, common operation types, maintenance considerations, and current and emerging market opportunities. Whether you are exploring a new enterprise or looking to diversify an existing woodland, this session offers foundational knowledge to help you move forward with confidence.
