Join Women and Our Woods Vermont as we showcase forest management that took place on women-owned and women-managed lands in 2022 and 2023. You'll learn about each woman's goals for their land and how they worked with the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps to implement their forest management project. Each project demonstrates different land management techniques for enhancing wildlife habitat, improving water quality, and conserving forest health and biodiversity. Join us to learn more about working with VYCC and these different techniques.

Presenters:
Melita Bass, Landowner
Sheila Halpin, Landowner
Caitlin Cusack, Forester, Vermont Land Trust
Bill Anderson, Conservation Forestry Project Manager at Vermont Youth Conservation Corps
