Forest landowners in North Carolina are invited to attend the 2018 Stewardship Forestry Recognition Program and Awards Luncheon on Saturday, May 19, 2018 at the Sheraton Four Seasons Hotel, 3121 West Gate City Blvd., Greensboro, NC. The program will include exhibits, networking, guest speakers, luncheon and the documentary, America’s First Forest. This will be a day to celebrate and highlight the great work that landowners are doing in North Carolina to enhance their forests for wildlife, soil and water quality, timber production, recreational opportunities, and natural beauty. 

This is a free event for forest landowners statewide, however a advanced registration is required to ensure enough lunches are ordered. Visit the website at http://go.ncsu.edu/celebrate-stewardship

The program is voluntary, and participants receive recognition for achievements in promoting total forest resource management.
