SUMMARY:The Guild’s Business Plan (webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Register (for one or both sessions…they will be the same presentation) \nApril 30\, 2025 at Noon EDT \nMay 1\, 2025 at 7:00 p.m. EDT  \nGuild members are invited to join a discussion about our new business plan. Ignited by the spark of shared passion\, the Guild was founded in 1995 to both practice and promote forest stewardship. Our national network of members\, staff\, and partners have advanced the culture of forest stewardship based on ethical principles\, best-available science\, and diverse experience. Three decades of thought-meets-practice leadership from the Guild and partners has brought the concept of ecological forestry from the fringes to become the expected standard for management in much of the U.S.\, but there is much more work to do!  \nZander Evans will share the strategic choices the Guild is making to expand our positive impact\, increase our membership\, and step up to our responsibility to keep forests healthy in the face of wildfire\, droughts\, invasive species\, and other threats. We will host two opportunities with the hope the one option will work for members interested in the discussion.
