The Nash, Edgecombe, and Wilson, NC Forest Service Offices have partnered to host a joint forestry banquet in conjunction with county Cooperative Extension Centers.

The event will feature informational booths with representative agencies, guest speakers, and provided dinner. The goal is to make information convenient for landowners with multicounty tracts and our cooperators by reducing the need to attend multiple meetings.

We hope you will join us—please don’t forget to RSVP.

We look forward to seeing you there.
