MB&G’s Senior Forester, Edie Knight, is making waves in the forestry community for her article entitled “Being Part of History: Attending the Inaugural Women’s Forest Congress”. The article was originally posted on the Association of Consulting Forester’s Blog ‘From The Woods’, and is now being picked up for the National Woodland Magazine’s next issue.
Edie attended the first Women’s Forest Congress in October and was part of a team who spoke at a session about Forest Therapy. MB&G was a sponsor for the event, and is looking forward to more congress events in the future. Learn more about the Women’s Forest Congress here: https://womensforestcongress.org/
Edie manages a 12,500 acre family forest for MB&G and is an invaluable asset to our team. Congrats Edie!

MB&G adopted a section of Highway 22 in 2022 to maintain as part of our established community service program.

MB&G did their fourth formal clean up on Earth Day and here are some great photos from the event.
