We were named Josephine County Tree Farmers of the Year in 1991 and we
enjoy having tours of our Forest Farm so that we may be of assistance to other people interested
in managing their forested properties. Naturally, we want them to try using an ecological approach, but mainly we just want
people to become active in managing their forests.
We have tours that are open to both other forest land owners and the interested
public, at various times of the year. In addition, our Forest Farm is available for educational classes. We are proud of our
work here on the Forest Farm and are very happy to show off our life's work- although it is a work
in progress.
Touring other forest properties over the years has given us great insight.
We have seen some things that we were intrigued with and some things that we adamantly would never do
to our land. By actually seeing the results of a particular forest management technique,
you can save yourself a lot of angst and sometimes come away with a clear idea of where you want to go-or don't want to go, with
your property.
