I am a service forester, firefighter, natural resource leader, and farmer.
Forestry Pic of the Day: 2-needle pinyon pine (Pinus edulis). A tough tree that thrives in some of the harshest environments. A producer of pine nuts, this tree is of great cultural and economic importance to the native peoples who have depended on it for millenia.

Forestry pic of the week: Mast!
Pictured are Arrowwood viburnum and sawtooth oak. Each is a mast (food) producer for wildlife. Viburnum produce fleshy drupes (soft mast), and sawtooth produces acorns (hard mast). Each type is vital to wildlife survival; manage your forest so that both are present.
Reading is fundamental!

Forestry pic of the day (month?): Teaching
These dogwoods were planted by 10th graders from Pittsylvania Co. as part of a biology field trip. I love teaching kids how to plant trees!

It's humbling to know that much of the forestry I do contributes to this near-perfect moment...

Forestry pic of the day: Harvesting deer.
As many of our apex predators are in decline or extirpated, we become the managers of the herds. Hunting is key to regulating overpopulation, disease, woody regeneration, and, ultimately, keeping herds and ecosystems healthy and resilient.
Dude, I can't wait!
