Woodland owners are invited to a Marketing Timber Workshop on Thursday, August 29, 2019, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Granville County Expo Center (4185 US 15, Oxford, NC). This workshop is co-sponsored by the NC Forest Service and NC Cooperative Extension.

For most woodland owners, a timber sale is a once or twice in a lifetime event. With such limited experience, it can be difficult to be certain that the price is fair and that the harvest is conducted properly. At this workshop, woodland owners will get advice from the experts on how to navigate the process successfully.

Presenters will include an NCSU forestry specialist, a woodland owner, and a Registered Consulting Forester.

This is a free event, but registration is requested.
