Join us for an inspiring hybrid event with Dr. Brian Donahue, Professor Emeritus of American Environmental Studies from Brandeis University, to explore his new book Slow Wood: Greener Building From Local Forests.

We’ll cover Donahue’s take on embracing sustainable living, building his own timber frame home from local wood, and creating a blueprint to live more responsibly.

Following the talk there will be time for questions and answers with the group.

This event is approved for 1.00 SAF Category 1 Continuing Forestry Education Credit.

If you have questions, please contact Rachel Swanwick, the Guild’s Northeast Program Manager at rswanwick@forestguild.org.
