Woodland Ecology Walk with a Forester

  • Saturday, December 5, 2026, 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Join CCE Columbia and Greene Counties for a walk at the Clearpool Model Forest to learn about local forest ecology and management practices used to maintain healthy productive forests.

Audubon-Endorsed Certified Forester Cory Creagan from Headwater Forestry Inc. will lead us through the trails to discuss the best management practices and land use strategies used at Clearpool to maintain a healthy and productive working forest within the NYC Watershed. Learn about silviculture harvesting methods, forest improvements, local forest ecology, and how you can apply these concepts in your woodlands!

In addition, learn about the Cornell Master Forest Owner (MFO) program and how you can request a free forest visit to help prioritize your woodland goals or become a volunteer MFO yourself.

Participants will receive a follow-up email with helpful forestry resources.
