Reunions

Each fall, we host two reunions for Keystone Cooperators, one in eastern Massachusetts and one in western. The reunions are held to help Keystone Cooperators stay current with forest conservation information and resources. The reunions also offer the opportunity to connect with fellow cooperators, share experiences, and learn from each other.

Keystone Reunions typically offer an opportunity for informal networking and an invited speaker in the morning indoor session followed by an afternoon field trip. Keystone Cooperators are welcome to participate in the entire reunion or can choose to come for either the morning or afternoon session. Topics covered in past reunions have included: control of invasive/exotic species, grassland management, developing old-growth characterisitics, developing early sussessional habitat, and pitch pine ecosystems.
