The Forest Society's Dave Anderson gives us a tour of his woodlot through his all time favorite trees, showing us that sometimes it's important to see the forest for the trees. 

Field Forester, Ben Aldrich, dives into the many ways a changing climate impacts forest management operations and how foresters are learning to adapt to the new winter weather patterns.

Our involvement here directly relates to our mission to “to perpetuate the forests of New Hampshire through their wise use and their complete reservation in places of special scenic beauty."

While every forest will face these challenges, the Forest Society recently had the opportunity to participate in a demonstration project centered at the Charles L. Peirce Wildlife and Forest Reservation in Stoddard and Windsor, one of the largest Forest Society properties. 

Our special guest, American folk music legend Tom Rush, attended the event at his namesake forest.

“The survival and subsequent care of the trees at the Tom Rush Forest chestnut orchard has been exemplary,” notes TACF Director of Regional Programs Kendra Collins. “It’s so wonderful to see the trees thrive through the implementation of best management practices and regular care by the volunteers.”
