A new short presentation is available to view on the Bradford County Extension Forestry website. The presentation will give you a broad overview of the many benefits provided by Pennsylvania woodlands. Go to http://bradford.extension.psu.edu/NResources/forestry.html and scroll down to "Upcoming Programs". From there click on the Forest Value$ icon. Wait a few seconds for the presentation to load. It should start automatically. Comments would be appreciated. You can send them to my email at rsh7@psu.edu.
