Resilient Sugarbush Management Micro-Credential
Maple and forestry experts from UMaine Extension, UMaine School of Forest Resources, and University of Vermont Extension have partnered to create a new learning opportunity for those interested in managing maple stands, also known as the sugarbush. The Resilient Sugarbush Management Micro-Credential is an introduction to sustainable sugarbush management, including how trees and sap flow work, causes of stress, and management systems and approaches that build forest resilience. Level 1 of this opportunity is now open and can be completed asynchronously "at your own pace". Enrolled students who complete this level’s modules will earn one of the three badges required to complete the Micro-Credential.
