This popular annual field day focuses on the chronosequence of changes within deer-free "slash walls" (www.slashwall.info) from 2017 to present, with an emphasis on controlling undesired stems, tree species, and pests with biological, mechanical and chemical controls.
Participants will receive the latest information on proven and emerging methods and technology to establish new forested areas, restore degraded woodlands, and perpetuate healthy and productive forests for the future.
