31st Annual VA Fall Forestry and Wildlife Field Tour

Virginia Cooperative Extension and the Virginia Forest Landowner Education Program, in collaboration with Virginia’s natural resource agencies, companies, and associations, will be holding their 31th Annual Fall Forestry and Wildlife Field Tour Programs starting Oct. 5. The tours will promote wise resource management on private forestlands and will focus on science-based forestry and wildlife management practices, public and private sources of technical and financial management assistance, and networking among landowners and natural resource professionals. There will also be demonstration stops on private, industry, and public lands that will center on multiple-use management opportunities and practices. Tours will be held at Patrick County on Oct. 5, Albemarle County on Oct. 12, Price George/Surry Counties on Oct. 19, and Frederick County on Oct. 25. Participants should arrive at sites by 8 a.m. Pre-registration is encouraged, as space is limited on a first-come, first-served basis. A $40 early registration fee (due one week before the tour date), or $45 when paid on the program date, will cover transportation and lunch.
