Tree Farm Events
Meet Us In Person
Most of our interactions are one-on-one,
meeting family forest landowners on their property,
but sometimes we do like to be more social.
In addition to participating in outreach events like Tree Farm Tours and Tree Schools, we gather twice each year to recognize and celebrate
the stewardship achievements of our members:
at the Family Forest Convention in June
and our annual Members Meeting & Awards Luncheon in November.
Save the Date(s)!
