The SIU Forestry Field Day event is a course for SIU forestry students that is completely hands on. The students get to apply what they learn in the classroom and take it to the field. They have training and applications with chainsaw operation, tree felling, invasive species identification and management, tree climbing, chipper operation and a career fair event. This is an excellent opportunity for the students as well as all of the volunteers, sponsors and industry represented to help display real life day to day operations in the field of arboriculture.
