#69 “Forest for the Trees” PLT Activity Join Maine PLT’s Anita Smith on a tour of forest management areas in the China (Maine) Schools Forest. The classroom version of this activity has students acting out the growth of trees in different areas, whether being managed for wood products, wildlife, or recreation, but in this tour, we see the real silvicultural strategies in action on the ground. In each area, we answer the question “What do you notice here?” then learn why you might want to use each technique in order to meet your goals. Anita leaves us with a challenge: to get a packet of flower seeds and try out some of these strategies for growing our own “forest garden” on the ground or in a tub.
