A hands-on learning experience for forest and woodland owners

Caring for wooded property comes with opportunities—and no shortage of questions. Forest health, wildfire risk, wildlife, invasive weeds, and long-term stewardship all intersect on the ground.

The Field Day is a hands-on, outdoor learning experience to help you better understand your property, explore actionable stewardship options, and connect directly with trusted professionals. Over the years, these field days have helped thousands of property owners reduce risks, avoid costly mistakes, increase enjoyment, and support the long-term health and direction of their forest.
