Take an educational walk through the woods in Spencerport

Got woods? Come see how one can improve their health, wildlife habitat and enjoy a forest as Greg and Kathy Lessord of the Monroe County Cornell Cooperative Extension Master Forest Owner program host an educational woods walk at 449 Hubbell Road in Spencerport Sunday, September 17, from 1 to 4 p.m.

Representatives from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Monroe County Soil and Water Conservation District will help lead discussions as the Lessords share information and tips they’ve learned to enhance a forest’s health. The Lessords have worked on special projects such as invasive species removal, forest restoration after ash removal due to the emerald ash borer and will explain plans for an upcoming timber sale.

The event is free but register in advance by emailing Emily Staychock at ecs268@cornell.edu. Participants must wear comfortable footwear and weather-appropriate clothing.
