NNRG Events
On the third Wednesday of every month at 7:30 p.m., we invite you to join NNRG, our partners, and fellow forest stewards to discuss forest management topics, share information and resources relevant to those topics, and connect with others who face some of the same challenges and opportunities as you in stewarding their lands. Get cozy from your home and bring your perspectives and questions for discussion. We look forward to seeing you each month.
Upcoming Chat
The next Fireside Chat will be on Zoom on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, at 7:30 p.m.
At the March fireside chat, join NNRG Director of Forestry Kirk Hanson to discuss forest restoration practices common to small woodlands in the Pacific Northwest. Through showcasing a series of restoration activities he has performed in his own family’s woods, Kirk will share each activity’s planning, logistics, and costs and the role of USDA cost-share funding in offsetting costs. Project examples will include pre-commercially thinning red alder, releasing conifer seedlings from competing vegetation, planting to improve diversity and long-term timber production, planting for long-term carbon sequestration, and wildlife habitat enhancement.
Note: we’ve moved registration to Zoom, so the form will look different
Bring your favorite cozy beverage, curl up in front of a fire or heater, and learn how your knowledge can contribute to healthy forests. This chat will be fairly casual, and we encourage you to bring your questions.
Missed one? You can see past Fireside Chats on the NNRG YouTube channel.
