Extension Activities in Robinson Forest
Demonstration sites and materials have been developed specifically for use in extension programming helping educators to more effectively teach about water quality, forestry practices, wildlife, and forest resource management. These sites and their associated materials have been used by a broad range of groups, including high school, collegiate and vocational educators, natural resource professionals, and environmentally concerned organizations.
An example of some programs held at Robinson Forest are Kentucky Forest Leadership Program, Kentucky Woodland Owners Short Course, and Kentucky Master Logger.
