Nov. 30: Workshop on Logging That’s Both Profitable and Sustainable

Ohio State University Extension’s Ohio Woodland Stewards Program will present “Selling Timber? Consider This …,” a workshop for landowners on sustainable logging, profitable marketing and practical tax matters, in northwest Ohio Nov. 30.

It’s from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the Wyandot County Recycling Center, 11329 County Highway 4, in Carey. Registration costs $25, includes a packet of timber marketing materials and is due by Nov. 24.
