Exploring the Old-Growth Forest Network with Joan Maloof
b'
Joan Maloof, Professor Emeritus at Salisbury University, founded the Old-Growth Forest Network to preserve, protect and promote the country's few remaining stands of old-growth forest. She spends her time lecturing, writing, visiting forests, assisting private landowners, and supporting local groups trying to protect community forests from development.
In this episode, Joan shares:
- How to identify old growth forests
- How to recommend that a forest becomes part of the protected network
- Map of protected forests within the Network
- The 100th Dedicated Forest (Opal Creek, Oregon)
- Michigan Old Growth Forests (Hartwick Pines, Porcupine Mountains)
- How we all can make a difference and get involved
