SUMMARY:Sandhills Learn-and-Burn
DESCRIPTION:Registration is not yet open for this event\, check back soon. \nJoin the Sandhills Prescribed Burn Association and ForestHer NC for an opportunity learn about burning in the Sandhills region of North Carolina. We will be burning in a longleaf pine ecosystem to maintain the diversity of native warm season grasses and restore wildlife habitat. \n  \nControlled burns\, or prescribed fire\, is the planned use of fire under predetermined weather and fuel parameters to obtain specific management objectives. And sometimes\, even after hours of planning\, the weather decides to not cooperate. Burn managers know at least a few days in advance if fire weather is going to be good to burn. Our current burn window is May 4 through May 6. Please keep all three dates reserved as workshop possibilities. The agenda will be the same regardless of the date. \nAgenda \n\n5:00 pm: Meet at burn location\n4:30 pm: Briefing and logistics\n7:30 pm: On-site community dinner (provided)\n\nFor questions\, contact dakota@forestguild.org \nThis learn-and-burn has been made possible thanks to a partnership with The Nature Conservancy.

DESCRIPTION:The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission will offer three free turkey hunting webinars – one each day February 7-9. Topics will include biology\, species habits\, habitats\, scouting\, essential equipment\, setup\, effective shot placement\, decoy placement and hunting strategies. Each hour-long class will conclude with an interactive Q&A session. \nTurkey hunting is a great option for entry-level hunters\, but has its challenges.
