Streaming Video - 2006 Family Foresters Workshop
14th Annual Workshop; January 20, 2006; Spokane, WA
Family forests (also known as non-industrial private forest or "NIPF" lands) are vital to the economy and quality of life in the Inland Northwest. These lands are increasingly valued for wildlife habitat, timber production, scenic quality, and many other purposes.
Unique skills are required of individuals who help family forest owners manage their property. This program is designed to:
- Strengthen the skills of consulting foresters, state-employed service foresters, and other natural resource professionals who work with family forest owners; and
- Serve as a forum to provide updates on emerging technology and knowledge applicable to family forests.
Co-Sponsors:
- Cooperative Extension System; Washington State University and the University of Idaho
- Association of Consulting Foresters
- Idaho Department of Lands
- Washington Department of Natural Resources
- Idaho Forest Owners Association
- Washington Farm Forestry Association
