ASSOCIATION FALL FIELD MEETING Saturday, October 22, 9:00 – 11:30 a.m. Kueffner Family Forest Forest Road, Mansfield This year’s fall field meeting we will be held at the property of ECFLA/WDLT Board member and newsletter editor Chris Kueffner’s property in Mansfield. Chris has just completed a new forest stewardship plan with assistance from forester Mark Tremblay of Land Management Services. This 100+-acre property includes a variety of different forest types and conditions, including mixtures of white pine and oak, hickory/beech/maple mixtures, a large bog habitat, and a one-acre market garden. As we walk, Mark and Chris will explain the practices planned in each area, including access road improvements, forest stand thinning, invasive plant control and more. Bring a friend and join us for a fun and informative morning!
