A Message From the ManagerPartnerships make good things happen
In the fall of 2003, following a year of meetings, activities, and preparations, the Wayne Lackawanna Forest Landowners (WLFLA) was established. A strong Board of Directors led the newly formed association to grow to 75 members at year’s end. Well-attended woodland walks, workshops, and educational presentations were conducted throughout the year. Attorney Lothar Holbert of Honesdale led the first workshop with good information regarding landowner liability issues.
Throughout the summer, outdoor activities included a forest
management walk at Dave Zeiler’s tree farm, examination of wildlife
food plots at Gamelands, and demonstrations of deer enclosure
fencing. In November, the group took a historic look at
Pennsylvania’s Forests in a program narrated by retired forester Jim
Nelson. This grassroots effort through partnerships sparked an
organization that will serve to enhance forest stewardship in our
area. |
