Piedmont Region Gathering: Conserving Healthy Forests

Join ForestHer NC in our Piedmont regional gathering! This workshop will be held at the Schenck Memorial Forest in Wake County and welcomes all ForestHers. The goals of this gathering are to build on ForestHer NC’s 2022 foundational workshop series, learn about conserving healthy forests, and create a sense of community among participants. Tickets are $10 and lunch will be provided.

Agenda:

• 12:00 Registration and Lunch
• 12:30 Welcome and Introductions
• 1:00 Conserving Healthy Forests: discussion and activity focused on wildlife habitat, invasive plants, and water quality.
• 2:00 Forest Walk

Accessibility: During the forest walk we will be walking on uneven ground, a majority of which is unpaved. We will travel a total of approximately 2 miles at a slow pace over mostly flat areas, but with some small hills. Please let us know if you would like assistance or accommodations and we will do our best to accommodate.
