Forest landowners suffered a tremendous loss of investment when Hurricane Helene leveled 822,000 acres of forestland. Many have been scrambling to determine what options are available to restore their forests to something desirable and manageable. In this workshop, N.C. State Extension Forestry will present information on the following topics to help landowners more successfully recover:

• Taxes and Investment Decisions in the Wake of Hurricane Helene
• Cost Share Opportunities and Resources Available for Recovery
• Forest Management After Hurricane Helene
• Fire Prevention and FireWise After Hurricane Helene

There is no cost for this event. Seating is limited to 50 attendees. All participants must register by calling the Henderson County office at 828-697-4891. For more information, please contact Western Area Forestry Agent Nathan Gatlin via email at npgatlin@ncsu.edu or by phone at 336-651-7330.
