The Conservation Advisory Committees of Taghkanic, Gallatin and Copake, the Climate Smart Communities Committee of Claverack and the Columbia Land Conservancy, are pleased to announce the second in a series of presentations on forest stewardship for Columbia County landowners: The Forest in Your Backyard: A Homeowner’s Guide to Managing Woodlands.
On Saturday, March 29, CLC President Troy Weldy will present The State of Columbia County’s Forests. Weldy has spent more than 25 years working in and studying the forests of New York State. He will discuss the current condition of Columbia County’s forests, describe significant threats to their health and effective functioning, and provide information about how individual landowners can begin to assess the status of their own woodlots.
Over the course of the year we will continue to offer insights from forestry experts on the current condition of our forests, various threats to its continued health, what individuals can do to maintain and improve the health of their woodlands, and why it is important to do so.
