Join us for a tour of the Crawford Creek Levels-of-Growing-Stock (LOGS) Study Site, hosted by the Southern Blues Partners. The event will include several stops at the study site, within the Malheur National Forest, where we will learn how forest density influences tree growth, forest health, fire resilience, plant diversity, and wildlife habitat. We will also discuss topics such as prescribed fire, regeneration, and more. Meet with professionals, landowners, and contractors, and enjoy a great day in the woods!
