(Columbus) – The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Forestry invites the public to attend in-person open houses to learn more about the Annual Work Plan for State Forests. All three open house events will take place September 10th-12th.
 
“Sharing information and receiving public input are key for the Division of Forestry’s annual open houses,” said ODNR Division of Forestry Chief Dan Balser. “They are great settings for members of the public to interact with division staff, learn about our plans to sustainably manage Ohio’s state forests, and provide us with valuable comments.”

The Division of Forestry’s managers and foresters develop an annual work plan to guide specific management activities for 24 state forests in Ohio. This work plan encompasses more than 200,000 acres combined. The open house events provide opportunities for the public to ask questions and comment on Ohio’s plans for sustainable forestry, which include recreation, aesthetic value, treating invasive species, prescribed burning, and timber cruising and harvesting.
