Join us each month for a walk at the Working Woods Learning Forest with a member of our team to explore a new perspective on the ways we interact with our Northeast Ohio forests.

Join Working Woods Hub staff for a guided walk through the Working Woods Learning Forest. Each tour explores how ecology, history, and stewardship influence the forests around us and shape how we care for them today. After the walk, enjoy light refreshments and conversation with fellow participants and staff. Each tour includes informational handouts to take home.

Time: 10am-12pm
Location: Working Woods Learning Forest at Holden Arboretum in Kirtland, Ohio (9805 Sperry Rd. Kirtland OH 44094)

The relationship between people and woods in our region spans thousands of years. Join Anna Carlson, Working Woods Outreach Coordinator, to explore how that relationship has changed over time and how past land use continues to shape the landscape today. Walk through old-growth and young-growth forest, examining signs on the landscape and considering how this history informs forest stewardship today.
