Last week the MSFM class took a trip out to North Vancouver for some forest learning on the relationships between mycorrhizal networks, forest complexity, and ecosystem-based management from the director of the program, Dr. Suzanne Simard.

Heading back to Vancouver, after a 1-week immersed in the forests of Nelson. Students were exposed to a variety of subjects such as ecosystem classification, harvesting and milling procedures, and the community forest model among others. Special thanks to all the guest speakers!

The 2018/19 MSFM program is underway! Aspiring foresters began with 1-week at UBC learning about forest health, processes, measurement methods, and management strategies among other forestry skills.

Students in the Stand Dynamics class had the chance to play Stephen Mitchell's Silva-couture game today! This game is a fun way to demonstrate the aspects of different harvesting systems; Hasbro Games might want to look at adopting it soon!

MSFM students have recently finished field trips for their 558 landscape level projects! 10 of our students were on Texada Island, while the other 15 vicisted Nelson.

The MSFM cohort is nearly finished Semester 1 with the last exam scheduled for tomorrow. Wish them luck!

These are busy times for the MSFM class! The group has just a few days before they present their Site Plans for two blocks in UBC's Malcolm Knapp Research Forest. After that, it's exam period!

The 2018 MSFM class is in Malcolm Knapp Research Forest this week to work on site plans!

So far, our 25 students have enjoyed their week-long field school in Nelson and are now in the groove of the first semester (2/2)
