Put Blodgett was honored by being named the Vermont and North East Regional (13 states) Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year by the American Forest Foundation.  This is a testament to his decades of sound forest management and stewardship of this 670-acre property that has been enrolled in the Tree Farm program for more than fifty years.

 

2010 Tree Farm Convention a Huge Success!

Over 400 people attended the 17th Annual Tree Farm Convention held at the Hilton Hotel in Burlington, VT on July 13-15 in Burlington, VT.

Folks were treated to knowledgeable guest speakers, a silent auction, excellent pre and post convention tours, and an incredible Field Day at Shelburne Farms (see photos).

As sponsors of this event, Vermont Woodlands would like to thank all of the individuals and companies that helped us make this a memorable experience!

Commemorative Convention items are available for purchase.  See what is still available.
