Green Horizons

The Missouri Tree Farm Display was set up at the Ozarks Farmfest this year in Springfield. Farmfest is held at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds each fall during the first weekend of October and attracts more than 40,000 landowners during the three-day event. Volunteers Clayton Lee and Frances Main discussed the Tree Farm program with several landowners who passed through the exhibit space. A lot of good questions were asked and answered about not only the Tree Farm program, but also about forest management and trees in general. For many who stopped by the booth, it was their first introduction to the Missouri Tree Farm program.
