University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Workshop: Managing Forests for Maple Syrup

Where: Treehaven, Tomahawk, WI
Cost: $45, fee includes lunch. Registration deadline: September 11, 2024
Writing forest management plans and managing forests for maple syrup production presents unique challenges. The sentiment that you “don’t cut sugar maple” could use some critical thinking and review. In this workshop, we will explore maple syrup production, state and federal policies regarding sugarbush management, and timber marking for sugar maple stand improvement.
This workshop is designed for foresters writing management plans for forests with sugar maple stands used in syrup production. Although the workshop is designed for foresters, any natural resource professionals and/or private landowners are welcome to attend.
