Understanding Your Forests (GRCA) in Glen Morris, ON

Understanding Your Forests (GRCA)

The Grand River Conservation Authority’s Understanding Your Forests workshop will answer questions about managing trees and the dynamic approaches of maintaining and improving their woodlots.

The free morning event is geared towards rural landowners with properties greater than 2.5 acres. A broad range of topics will include forest management, invasive species, grant opportunities, tree care/pruning and supporting wildlife habitat.

This event will also introduce funding available through the Brant Rural Water Quality Program to encourage good forestry practices in small woodlots. Landowners with forests less than 4 hectares in size are eligible for 50% funding for the creation of a forest management plan. Additional funding is available for invasive species control, tree planting and more.

The Workshop will take place on Saturday November 25, 9 a.m. to noon starting at the Glenn Morris Centennial Hall, 17 Dunbar St, Glen Morris ON, NOB 1W0 and walking through a local GRCA forest tract.

Participation is free, please dress accordingly as part of the workshop will be outdoors.
