We’re excited to bring the Sustainable Forestry Tour for Idaho teachers and counselors to the Moscow, Idaho region this summer. The tour will include beautiful forests, high-tech mills, passionate people, delicious food, proven activities for the classroom, VIP treatment and a full-circle experience of modern sustainable forestry.  Why become a sponsor for the Sustainable Forestry Tour for Idaho teachers and counselors?

On-the-ground tours are the best way to demonstrate how forests work and show the dynamics of the forest products industry:

  • The tours are built on a foundation of over 25 years of high quality, effective programs.
  • They are specifically designed for teachers and school counselors.
  • Participating teachers and counselors reach thousands of students.
  • The experience makes a real difference in what educators know, and what they share with their students.
