Landowners frequently express both interest and concern about the most challenging step in the cycle of forest management: achieving good regeneration after a disturbance or harvest. Join a team from OSU Forestry Extension for a day in the forest learning about the basics of forest regeneration, including species selection, the influence of topography, using the shade of sheltering objects, browsing by animals, and much more. We will also discuss 'downstream' influences of reforestation choices like impacts on future potential fire behavior, forest product yield, and wildlife habitat.
