Landowner Chainsaw Safety Training: Felling, Bucking and Maintenance

Join your local conservation district for another landowner chainsaw training where we will cover how to safely approach various chainsaw techniques such as felling, bucking, snags and more. The first day we will be in the classroom going over chainsaw safety, proper technique, characteristics of tension in wood and maintenance. Lunch will also be provided using the $10 event cost. The following day, we will be able to get outside and put our new skills to use in a safe and controlled environment just off the Blandford Nature Center trail.
