SUMMARY:A Conversation with the authors of “Tending Your Forest: A Guide to Ecological Forest Stewardship”
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an engaging discussion centered on Tending Your Forest: A Guide to Ecological Forest Stewardship in the Eastern and Central United States\, an accessible and science-based guide for landowners and woodland stewards. This program will feature the book’s authors Paul Catanzaro and Anthony D’Amato and introduce the core concepts of ecological forest stewardship outlined in the book\, including how forests grow and change over time\, how management can support both ecological health and landowner goals\, and how stewardship decisions play out on the ground. The evening will also highlight a real-world case study that brings these principles to life\, illustrating how thoughtful\, values-driven management can enhance forest resilience\, wildlife habitat\, and long-term sustainability. \nFollowing the presentation\, enjoy a conversation with the authors\, moderated by VLT forester Caitlin Cusack and Vermont Coverts Executive Director Lisa Sausville. Together\, they will explore practical lessons from the book\, reflect on local stewardship experiences\, and discuss how landowners can apply these ideas to their own woods: whether actively managing or simply deepening their understanding of the forests they care for. This event is ideal for forest landowners\, conservation practitioners\, and anyone interested in the future of working and conserved forests in Vermont and beyond. \n\nJune 22 @ 6:00 pm – 7:15 pm – Register online to receive the Zoom link for this virtual event.
