Progressive Forestry in Pennsylvania Hardwoods

Using Expanding Gaps and Low-Intensity/High-Frequency Thinnings to Create Vibrant, Resilient Forests

Forestry today is faced with a host of new impacts: climate change, invasive species, introduced pests and a landscape over run by deer. Yet, in many ways we manage forests with the same philosophy and process that was used 50 years ago. This webinar covered a review of progressive practices including: expanding gap openings, high frequency thinnings, understory development and logging with horses.
