Beta-testers Wanted for Woodland Steward Independent Study

We are seeking 15 landowners in the counties of Boone, Callaway, Cole, Moniteau, and Osage to help us beta-test a new Missouri Woodland Steward format.

Participants will register for the short course through the MU Center for Distance and Independent Study. They will receive by mail a set of four high-quality DVDs; supporting publications from the Missouri Department of Conservation and MU Extension; and easy-to-follow instructions. After completing the indoor segment, we will provide participants the opportunity to take a "Walk in the Woods" with a professional forester. Students will have access to a secure, online bulletin board to ask questions and discuss topics with other participants. The cost for this study is $75, a 25% reduction from the course fee once it is offered statewide.

For more information and to view a sample of the DVDs, go to www.snr.missouri.edu/forestry/extension/woodland.php , or contact Hank Stelzer, (573) 882-4444, stelzerh@missouri.edu.
