Episode 4: Sweet Talk about Sugarbush Management

This week, Aaron Wightman interviews two guests with different, yet compatible perspectives on sugarbush management.  Peter Smallidge is the New York State Extension Forester, and Director of the Arnot Forest, and has been involved with maple research and extension since the late 90's. We asked Peter to discuss his research pertaining to syrup production optimization and forest regeneration.  Zack Boerman from Audubon NY is a co-developer of the Bird-Friendly Maple Program. We asked Zack to share his expertise on sugarbush management from a wildlife conservation point of view.
