SUMMARY:Free Webinar: Woodland Owner Lunch and Learn - Seedling Genetics and Soil Fertility - Know What you are Planting and How to Care for It
DESCRIPTION:During each rotation of a planted forest\, landowners have a single opportunity to choose the appropriate genetics for their long-term investment. We encourage forest landowners to plant the best genetic quality seedlings possible. The benefits from establishing highly productive families\, in combination with good silvicultural practices\, will result in large financial returns. Nurseries grow loblolly pine seedlings that have a range in genetic quality. Information about the value of different seedling families can be sourced from seedling vendors as well as from tree improvement cooperatives. The cooperative provides a “third-party” assessment of the productivity\, disease resistance\, and stem quality of the many families that are available for purchase. An example of this is the loblolly pine Performance Rating System (PRS) developed by the NC State University Cooperative Tree Improvement Program. Information provided through this rating system helps seedling customers make informed decisions when comparing the genetic potential of one family relative to another. Once decisions on seedling genetics are made\, at-planting silvicultural decisions will determine the trajectory of the stand and if landowners will capture the potential of selected genetics. Appropriate chemical and/or mechanical site preparation\, fertilization\, timing\, and spacing & density all play critical roles in ensuring the success of a new plantation.

SUMMARY:Free UAA Webinar: ROW Reclamation: Right-of-Way Done Right
DESCRIPTION:Cutting the trees and eliminating brush is the easy part! \n\n\n\nGaining consistency and support from internal and external stakeholders is the hard part. This is the ‘secret ingredient’ our presentation will focus on. \n\n\n\nWe also will share how reclamation can galvanize the whole utility\, shore up interdepartmental collaboration and trust\, the veg team and contractors\, and individual job satisfaction. \n\n\n\nIn the end\, this all ripples back out into the industry where we need competent people joining our workforce and staying as a profession. \n\n\n\n1 CEU with live broadcast.

SUMMARY:SAWW -Chainsaw Safety Level 1
DESCRIPTION:Learn to operate a chainsaw safely and efficiently in this certified Safety and Woods Working (SAWW) training course.  \n\n\n\nThis course is certified through the Safety and Woods Working (SAWW) training program and is part of a four-level series designed to increase safety and efficiency of chainsaw use. Participants in Level 1 training will spend part of the morning in the outdoor classroom\, and at least 5 hours outside practicing techniques to operate chainsaws safely\, comfortably and productively. Topics covered include personal protective equipment (PPE)\, body mechanics\, chainsaw safety features\, the chain and the cutter tooth\, reactive forces\, planning and executing tree felling\, intro to limbing\, and bucking. Level I introduces the participant to bore cutting and open face felling\, and develops the mechanics to execute these techniques. Hands-on training gives participants the opportunity to fell at least one tree. \n\n\n\nWorkshop leader: Luke Saunders (Forester with Adaptive Restoration LLC).
