Vermont Woodlands Association will hold a Conifers, Christmas Trees & Stewardship Tour at the McKay Tree Farm in Barnet, VT on Sunday, December 7th from 1:30 to 3:30 pm

Join us for a closeup look at a small cut-your-own Christmas tree operation and a walk to look at all the conifers, how to ID them, their growth habits, problems, and management.

We’ll look at ongoing thinning of dense balsam fir and white pine regeneration and take a look at cedar growing in a classic northern white cedar swamp, and more.

Come dressed for the weather. If there is much snow, we’ll use snowshoes or skis. After the walk, warm up with hot apple cider, cookies, and conversation. And if you’d like to buy a Christmas tree, come prepared to take one home.

Cost of this program is $20.  To participate, register at https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/qgxnwj8
