Forest Management Tour
Curious how forestry management decisions are made, or what types of practices are used on the Duke Forest? Then join the Duke Forest staff for a Saturday morning management tour on May 31, 2008! (Please note the change in date.)
Participants will visit recent harvested, burned, and planted sites to learn more about the various operations going on in the Forest. Transportation through the Forest will be provided, but space will be limited to 25 participants.
Registration for this event will begin on Friday, May 16 at 12:00 pm, both online and by telephone. If you have any questions or ADA requirements, please call the office at (919) 613-8013.
