Fresh Starts: The Role of Young Forests in Wildlife & Land Management

We’ll visit different properties—both public and private—to see how young forests take shape and provide habitat under different conditions.

On this tour, we will:

• Visit areas that have regrown after wildfire, with and without salvage logging, and compare the differences.

• Explore recently harvested sites and see how landowners help forests recover.

• Learn how young forests provide habitat for wildlife and contribute to a healthy landscape.

• Discuss how different management choices impact forest recovery over time.
