This webinar highlights several existing small businesses which sell forest-grown and harvested goods.
The case studies include a cooperative model for woodland enterprises, examples of a range of value-added non-timber forest products, and other opportunities for agroforestry and use of low value wood. Speakers share strategies for tapping into existing markets as well as considering some markets which are emerging. The webinar also discusses product labeling to highlight good stewardship practices, which would present a marketing advantage in reaching some customers.
