Iowa woodland owners and others interested in forest stewardship are invited to participate in the Iowa Master Woodland Steward Program (MWSP), a comprehensive educational program designed to help participants better understand, manage, and protect Iowa’s woodland resources.

While the program is primarily intended for woodland owners, stewards, and land managers, it is also valuable for teachers, loggers, government employees, and anyone with an interest in Iowa’s forests.

Starting September 8, participants will visit locations in Webster, Hamilton and Boone counties including Don Williams, Ledges, Dolliver, Dayton Oaks and private locations. Register soon as spots are filling up fast. Cost $125. https://go.iastate.edu/X1FFDY
