Through the Minnesota Forest Stewardship Program, DNR provides financial support that makes Woodland Advisor classes possible. DNR foresters and other natural resource professionals sometimes instruct at classes as well. To learn more about the Minnesota DNR, visit their website at http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/forestry.
Local private woodland committees
Most local woodland committees are chapters of MFA. These committees play a crucial role in the Woodland Advisor program by identifying local information needs, finding excellent local instructors, and helping to plan classes. Click for a list of private woodland committees.
