SANDPOINT — Men in beards and flannel, move over — women are headed into the forest for the second annual Women in the Woods Field Day in Sandpoint on May 10.
With a great turnout last year, Idaho Department of Lands staff said they are excited to make this an annual event that teaches women how to use various outdoor tools and educates them about nature skills.
“This opportunity provides a wide range of training geared for women by women foresters to give them hands-on experience, inspiring more active participation in managing family-owned forests,” said IDL public information officer Sharla Arledge.
