National Stewardship Week April 24-May 1


National Stewardship Week
“Forests for People – More than You Can Imagine”
April 24 – May 1, 2011


Each and every day, we all have a connection to forests. This connection includes things as obvious as paper products we use at work and school; the food and spices we eat; the furniture we sit on and the houses we live in. But trees also provide other critical benefits that we often take for granted including clean water and clean air.
Forests also offer families the opportunity to take a peaceful walk and picnic on a sunny afternoon; provide children with the perfect atmosphere to learn about the great outdoors; and serve as a refuge for animals and plants.
Take some time to explore the great outdoors.
2011 marks the 56th year of the National Association of Conservation Districts National Stewardship Week. Help us celebrate National Stewardship Week, April 24 to May 1.
