Join us on October 27 as we tour Waukegan Farms and learn management practices that landowners can implement to transform a diamond in the rough to a Tree Farm that meets their objectives.

Laura and Maurice Hull, 2011 N.C. Tree Farmers of the Year, will host the N.C. Tree Farm Program’s 2018 Annual Meeting at their Caswell County Tree Farm, Waukegan Farms. Named for the Algonquin Indian word for “sheltering place,” Waukegan Farms is a peaceful wooded retreat near the community of Semora.

We’ll see live demonstrations of a prescribed burn and portable sawmill, and the stocking of a new pond with bluegill and sunfish. We’ll also celebrate the accomplishments of our Tree Farmers and volunteers as we recognize Tree Farm anniversaries, the Inspector of the Year and the Tree Farmer of the Year.

Pre-registration is required to attend this event. Registration deadline is October 15.
