FALL FORESTRY & WILDLIFE FIELD TOURS

32nd Annual Fall Forestry & Wildlife Field Tours Series - Take a virtual tour below.

The Fall Forestry and Wildlife Field Tours give participants the opportunity to observe forest and wildlife management practices being implemented on the ground. 

Fall Forestry & Wildlife Field Tours (aka the Bus Tours):

  • are offered each October across Virginia
  • involve landowners, state natural resource agency employees, forest industry professionals, and representatives of environmental non-government organizations;
  • inform participants about practical forest and wildlife management techniques which are currently being employed in their area;
  • are a great opportunity for networking with other landowners and natural resource professionals; and
  • are offered each October around the state. 

The Fall Forestry & Wildlife Field Tours is the longest running program of its type in Virginia.  Past field tours have visited seedling nurseries, harvesting jobs, manufacturing plants, and both public and private forestlands. 

Next summer, check out the Calendar of Events for the 2009 tour schedule.
