Programs and resources for woodland stewardship
Whether you own 10 acres or hundreds, whether your woods have been in the family for months or generations, we invite you to explore our educational materials, connect with us on social media and email, and make plans to join us for an upcoming event. We can help you:
Timely topics and new resources
Prescribed Fire
Many of Wisconsin’s forests used to experience regular fires that kept ecosystems healthy and in balance. Informed by that history, we can use fire intentionally to benefit ecosystem health while protecting the safety of the land, water, soil, plants, animals, people, and infrastructure.
Growing Young Trees
Wisconsin’s forests face a variety of challenges when it comes to growing new generations of trees. Fortunately, there’s a lot you can do to give seeds, seedlings, and saplings a better chance at growing into the next cherished trees in your woods.
Managing Emerald Ash Borer Impacts
There’s no sugarcoating it—the loss of ash trees in your woods can be devastating. But with proactive forest management, you can make your woods more resilient and guide the ecosystem towards a healthy future even with fewer ash trees on the landscape.
