KAXE's Tuesday Morning Show strives to take an in-depth look at some natural resource-based issues important to Northern Minnesota. Producer Mark Jacobs and hosts Heidi Holtan and John Latimer discuss the problems and highlight some creative solutions.
Michael Snyder has spent a lot of time in the forests of Vermont: first as a field practitioner and ultimately as Vermont’s commissioner of forests, parks and recreation.
During his long career, he fielded many questions about forests from landowners he worked with and the public. Over the years, he contributed essays based on these questions to Northern Woodlands magazine.
These essays were recently compiled into a book titled Woods Whys. While the book has a New England flavor, it is also applicable to the forests of Northern Minnesota.
Snyder joined the KAXE Morning Show to talk about his book and give his insights on our nation’s forests.
Funding for this project was provided by the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund as recommended by the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR).
