Women’s Chainsaw Workshop

May 4 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

This all-day workshop is designed to provide a safe and welcoming learning environment for women who have little to no experience using chainsaws and would like to get more hands-on instruction and practice. We will discuss personal protection equipment (PPE), chainsaw maintenance and training in basic chainsaw use and safety including:

  • how to get out of common binds
  • limbing
  • bucking
  • basic small-medium diameter felling

Space is limited. This workshop is geared toward women, however all are welcome.
