10 Acres and A Dream
Idaho is well known for extensive public lands; so much that people sometimes lose sight of how much private land we have in some regions of the state. For example, Boundary, Bonner, Kootenai and Benewah counties collectively have over 1.5 million acres of private lands — 47.5% of all lands in those counties. Some of these parcels are in large blocks, but most of them are smaller parcels, owned by an ever-growing number of private landowners. Uses of lands vary from forest, to pasture, to crops.
University of Idaho Extension offers this one-day program to help owners of small rural acreages manage their land to meet their goals. 10 Acres and A Dream was the idea of Idaho Master Forest Stewards, most of whom are private landowners themselves and have interacted with a variety of rural landowners who have struggled with making their dream of owning and tending rural property a reality.
To ensure an effective learning environment, the session is limited to 75 participants. Please return the registration form…

Trees killed by bark beetles or root diseases often make forest owners ask: "What can we do about it?" Whether you have problems with insects or disease, concerns about fire or just want to improve forest health and growth, the response from foresters is nearly universal: thin your stand.
Thinning and pruning can favor better adapted tree species, increase forest resilience to drought, improve tree quality, reduce fire risk, improve access and enhance many other values. In this program, we will discuss basic thinning and pruning concepts, then expand on those concepts in a hands-on field tour.
To ensure an effective learning environment, the program is limited to 40 participants. Please return the registration form as soon as possible, to assure your place and help us plan.
