This one-day workshop at PCC's Rock Creek Campus will introduce landowners
to a series of strategies and tools for maximizing the economic

thorough overviews of each strategy.
Topics will include:
- Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification and markets
- Forestry based carbon offset programs
- Small-scale processing and direct sales
- Financial incentive programs
- Technical assistance programs
