Natural Resources Minister John MacDonell will be the guest speaker at the 41st annual general meeting of the Nova Scotia Woodlot Owners and Operators' Association (NSWOOA).
The event will be held April 10, at the United Church hall in Old Barns, Colchester County.
"John MacDonell has been a friend of NSWOOA for quite a while," says NSWOOA President Austin Parsons.
"I believe he understands our association's interests in forest certification, uneven age management, Acadian Forest restoration, biomass and our position on whole tree harvesting," Parsons added.
Other topics for the day include updates on the Otter Ponds Demonstration Forest project, biomass, intergenerational transfer and NSWOOA business.
Registration begins at 8 a.m.; the minister is scheduled to speak around 9.
Activities will conclude at 3:30 p.m.
Cost for the event, which includes lunch, is $10 for NSWOOA members and $20 for guests.
The church hall is about seven kilometres south of Truro on Route 236.
