NNRG MAY FIRESIDE CHAT: Mapping tools for forest owners

MAY FIRESIDE CHAT | WEDNESDAY, MAY 17| 7:30-8:30PM | ON ZOOM

At this month’s Fireside Chat we’ll be led by NNRG Forester Sam Castro, who will discuss basic mapping tools all forest owners should know about. He’ll talk about how to use Avenza Maps, a free mapping app that allows you to load georeferenced maps of your forest (like those in your NNRG forest management plan!) onto your phone, then drop waypoints or create trails on the map as you move through your forest. We’ll also discuss the different types of maps a forest management should and could include, and how they can aid your forest stewardship. 
 
The May Fireside Chat will take place on Zoom on Wednesday, May 17, 2023 from 7:30-8:30pm.

WHAT IS A FIRESIDE CHAT?

Fireside chats are monthly community events where forest owners can talk directly with NNRG staff and other forestry professionals, and connect with other forest owners in western Washington and Oregon.

On the third Wednesday of every month, we invite you to join NNRG Director of Forestry Kirk Hanson, others from NNRG’s forestry team, and fellow forest landowners and land stewards to discuss forest management topics, share information and resources relevant to those topics, and connect with others face some of the same challenges and opportunities as you in stewarding their lands. 

Bring your spring drink of choice!
