Jan. 52023

AUGUSTA – An all-day program sponsored by Maine Woodland Owners focused on topics important to woodland owners and those interested in forests in Maine will be held on Wednesday, Jan. 11, during the Agricultural Trades Show at the Augusta Civic Center, 76 Community Drive.
The program, which is free and open to the public, will be conducted in person, but the feature program, at 1:40 p.m., will also be live-streamed, featuring representatives of two companies who work with small woodland owners who want to sell their forest carbon credits.
Lillian Hogan, landowner customer success manager of NCX, and Patricia Ruby, northeast director of the Family Forest Carbon Program, will explain how their programs work and discuss what woodland owners interested in selling their forest’s carbon must consider to determine if this is the right choice for them.
The Forestry Forum will start with a brief member meeting at 8 a.m., and will be followed by a series of presentations on wood markets, woodland wildlife, forest carbon markets, and forest pest and disease updates. In addition to hosting the all day program, Maine Woodland Owners is also holding an online auction with unique items that include books, tours, gear, equipment, and gift certificates. The auction will run from through Jan. 11.
