SUMMARY:Weekend Course - Minnesota Forests 2026
DESCRIPTION:Minnesota Forests Adult Learner Weekend Course		\n				\n				\n				\n			March 27-29\, 2026		\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n						\n		\n				\n				\n				\n						\n							\n					\n			\n							\n						\n				\n					Minnesota is known for its forests\, and with good reason: it is the confluence of two major forest biomes\, the deciduous and coniferous. Learn what makes a tree\, how to identify different species\, the natural and human history of Minnesota’s diverse forest communities\, forest management\, and animal and human forest use. The forests we see today are the results of many decisions- by humans and other animals\, whether to cut\, whether to eat. One goal of the course is to understand what we see\, based on the history of diverse actions\, and plan our management on the basis of many options. Our field days may coincide with maple syruping season at Osprey Wilds. Learn about the process and participate in the selection and tapping of trees and collecting and cooking sap (nature willing). Practice tree identification skills and view actual forest management. \n				\n				\n				\n				\n					This is one of the environmental education courses we offer through Hamline University’s Graduate Professional Development Program (Continuing Studies).  We do also make this course available on an audit basis (not-for-credit) for those interested. \n				\n				\n						\n					\n		\n				\n			\n							\n						\n				\n					\n																					\n				\n				\n						\n					\n		\n								\n					\n		\n				\n						\n							\n					\n			\n							\n						\n				\n			Pricing		\n				\n				\n				\n					$350 per person includes: 2 nights of lakeside lodgingFresh\, from-scratch meal serviceCompletion of a Hamline University Environmental Education Course (audit experience)Optional: $175 for course and meals (no lodging) \n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n						\n					\n		\n				\n			\n							\n						\n				\n			Registration		\n				\n				\n				\n					 Registration and payment are required by Wednesday\, March 25th.  \n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n						\n						Register Here\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Available add-on: $12 set of linens
