Woodland Landowner Considerations for Forest Carbon Programs

The 2026 Forestry Stewardship Webinar Series features a series of five presentations from Forestry Experts each Wednesday at 2:00 pm Central on July 29 and August 5, 12, 19, and 26.  You can choose to sign up for any or all of them! Virtual sessions are 1-hour in length, open to the public, and free to attend.  ISA Certified Arborist Continuing Education credits have been applied for.

Join us on July 29 for a presentation by Keith Phelps, University of Wisconsin-Madison, on Woodland Landowner Considerations for Forest Carbon Programs.

In the past few years, opportunities for woodland landowners to participate in forest carbon programs have expanded across the Midwest. However, it can be difficult to understand if enrolling in a forest carbon pro-gram is compatible with the management vision for your woodland. Join UW-Madison Extension Forestry for a presentation on forest carbon programs operating in the Midwest and important questions to consider when deciding whether or not to enroll in a forest carbon program.
