Are you interested in our woodlands? If so a spring forestry field day is being offered later this month southwest of Iowa City. Topics covered at the field day will be managing forest gully erosion, managing weeds and fish in ponds, timber stand improvement practices, and spring wildflower plant ID. The field day is being offered by the Iowa Woodland Owners Association, Iowa DNR Forestry Bureau, Iowa State University Extension Forestry, and landowners Larry & Miechelle Weber.

The field day is from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 23 at the Weber property (4589 Kansas Ave. SW just off of Highway 1). The meeting is free and registration is not required. If you have any questions, call Mark Vitosh, Iowa DNR/Forestry, 319-351-8886 or e-mail mark.vitosh@dnr.iowa.gov.
