Date(s) - Mar 7th, 2015
12:30 pm - 2:30 pm
Location
Jackson Swamp
Can we really cut down trees and help the animals of the forest? Learn how! Watch how the strength of these working animals help a forester “weed” the forest, and can actually help other trees grow. Meet a real oxen team and watch them in action as you learn about low-impact sustainable forestry with experienced forester Tom Jenkens. Children under the age of 12 need to be accompanied by a parent/chaperone. Snacks are provided, please wear sturdy warm boots, dress in layers, and bring a water bottle. There are no bathrooms at the site. [See more information about our morning demonstration for landowners].
Foul weather date is Sunday, March 8th
Please note, dogs are prohibited as to not distract the working power animals.
