3/23/2018 44 Comments Forest FridayWhat a week it's been! Sadly, today was our last day in the Granite State. But, we tried to fill it up with as much fun and learning as we could. After stopping by the Saco district station to borrow some hardhats, we visited a logging site managed by the Forest Service. This particular timber sale had recently been conducted and completed on their Jigger-Johnson Campsite with the primary goal of removing a stand of dying red pine trees which were becoming hazardous to the public. Ken Jaeger, Timber Sale Administrator, and Jim Innes, District Ranger, showed us the site and explained the logistics of logging. Ken oversees all the sales happening in the Forest at once, and he tries to visit each one daily. His job is a difficult but rewarding combination of understanding business decisions and local loggers and being the voice of the environment. He showed us a skidder, a large tractor with a claw attachment used to transport large bundles of logs. Then, he took us on a walk around the site and gave us more information about his day to day. Jim provided a political perspective, telling us about how he splits his time in Washington D.C. and the forest service, and how he deals with timber sales from the policy perspective and addresses various types of litigation against the Forest Service. We were thankful to Jim for being willing to answer our questions about why the Forest Service does logging at all and what man's relationship to nature is/should be. After our lunch break of sandwiches and fruit, we headed to the aptly name town of Sandwich and its Mead Base. A lovely and historic white-sided house surrounded by stone walls, the Base was once owned by a Mr. Mead who made the largest donation of land to the Forest in its history in order to prevent it from being logged. The Base hosts volunteers and researchers, such as the Boy Scouts, who need a place to stay in the Forest. Fred Lavigne is its caretaker, an ex-logger who has also been heavily involved in conservation efforts. Fred absolutely loves the history of the White Mountains communities, and has been involved in conservation projects around areas of significant natural beauty and historic significance. Over the course of nine years, he, his wife, and some neighbors spearheaded an effort to expand their local wilderness area to preserve a large section of land including what's called the Algonquin Trail. Our curiosity was piqued by his story of some recently rediscovered town records, and the ruins of old homes you could still find hidden in the forest. Though a small-time logger himself, Fred seemed really dismayed by mindless clear cutting and took us to see the beauty of the forest in the backyard of Mead Base, including some truly magnificent large pine trees and frozen waterfalls. Saying goodbye to the kind and informative Fred, we went in search of the Sandwich Creamery. Down a long, muddy, bumpy road, the Creamery was inhabited only by a black cow, two sheep, and a ram. We chose some maple walnut ice cream and cheese from the fridges, left our payment in a little mailbox, and headed back to our cabin for the last time.

The Council’s PR-machine is continuing with their attempt to deflect attention away from the issues that lie at the heart of the problem: who is responsible for the decision to fell half of Sheffield’s street trees? And how did this policy go unchallenged? Although I am not confident that these facts will ever come to light, I am as determined as ever to protect healthy street trees from bureaucratic incompetence.

It is hard to see how Cllr. Lodge’s statement from March can be understood as anything other than spin. Unfortunately this is typical of how communications around the tree replacement programme have unfolded between concerned citizens and their elected representatives. Even at the dawn of a potentially more constructive era, when it would seem that the Council are taking campaigners more seriously, facts are still being distorted and fed to an increasingly sceptical public

The hole you dig for your tree should be at least twice as wide as its container or root ball, but three to four times as wide is even better. Make sure the sides of the hole slant down, like a large bowl, and prevent settling by digging only as deep as the existing root ball, making sure that the root flare is at or above ground level. When you refill the hole, its size and shape will give the tree just the right amount of loosely packed soil for its roots to be able to spread and take hold.

I was thrilled to pick out products from their new PowerGear2™ line – to replace our old Fiskars pruning products. We are huge lovers of the orange and black garden tools – we have almost every Fiskars product (I even have them in my sewing and craft box). The new PowerGear2™ line has up to 3x more cutting power! In addition, Gilmour sent watering products to help with our raised garden beds

There are many benefits to starting a small business. Small businesses are great because you get the opportunity to create something from the ground up, and you have more control over what happens. And it’s easier to manage your time with a small business since there are fewer people involved. You can also make more money if your business is successful than if you work for someone else, even at a high-paying job.
