Missouri Woodland Steward Now Online!

MU Extension's popular Missouri Woodland Steward Short Course is now available online as an independent study course through the Center for Distance and Independent Study.

For your $100 course registration fee, you will receive a set of four, high-quality DVDs containing six hours of instruction from professionals and landowners who are actively managing their woodlands;
Supporting publications from the Missouri Department of Conservation and MU Extension;
Easy-to-follow online instructions.
You will have access to a secure, online bulletin board to ask questions, post pictures and discuss topics with our professional staff and other course participants.

Upon completing the indoor segment, we will invite you to take a "Walk in the Woods" with a professional forester or private land conservationist and see first-hand some of the practices introduced during your at-home sessions.
To register for the course, visit: www.cdis.missouri.edu.

They say that all good things must come to an end. And a really good thing is coming to an end here at Green Horizons.
My co-editor and good friend, Rachel McCoy, is leaving and returning to her roots in northwest Missouri. A promotion for her husband -- coupled with the opportunity for the McCoys to be closer to family -- was too good a deal to pass up. Rachel brought to GH a journalistic professionalism that I will strive to maintain. On behalf of everyone associated with GH, I want to thank her for a job well done and best of luck in her future endeavors!
