SUMMARY:Sugarbush Management Field Day at Nutkin Knoll Farm
DESCRIPTION:Join UMaine Extension\, Maine Forest Service\, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service\, Audubon\, MOFGA and others for a full day field tour at Nutkin Knoll Farm in Newburgh. \nMaple sugarbush management can be a complex process. Extreme weather along with new and native forest pests increase the importance of intentional forest management planning. Fortunately\, there are several service provider groups and experienced sugarbush managers to support those looking to learn more about the process. This program is designed for sugarbush managers\, consulting foresters\, forestry service providers\, and those looking to learn more about sugarbush management. \nTopics discussed will include: \n· The influence of forest conditions on sap yields\n· Assessing sugarbush habitat\n· Forestry approaches to enhance sugarbush resilience\n· Invasive species management\n· Certification programs\n· Cost share opportunities for management\n· And more. \nSAF CEU credits and Maine BPC Pesticide credits are being applied for and credit availability will be confirmed soon. \nRegistration coming soon. There will be a sliding scale program fee; if cost poses a barrier\, please contact ava.sharpe@maine.edu.
