FORESTRY
Superintendent — Jim Philbrook
From toothpaste to timber — we use over 2000 products made from wood every day. Visit us at the Forestry Building to learn where many of these products come from, how they are manufactured and gain a clearer understanding of our connection to the forest. Forests are all around us from the small forests in our back yards and urban areas to larger forests in rural areas throughout the state. There are many ways we depend upon and benefit from these forests. They provide clean air and water, beautiful scenery, and places to relax and recreate. They also support the wood products and tourism industries. There will be new exhibits that illustrate how we use this valuable resource wisely and sustainably. Each year we have a featured tree species. This year our focus is the importance of Black Cherry for its valued lumber and wildlife uses.
As always, the building is staffed with friendly, knowledgeable volunteers who can answer your questions about the exhibits and about Vermont forests. Your interest and suggestions are important to us. See you at the Fair.
