2026 Landowner Resource Workshop
Anson and Montgomery Counties regularly rank highest in the state for harvested timber income. Forestry and natural resource management are major activities in the region.
Join NC Cooperative Extension Anson and Montgomery County Agents, and NC State Extension Forestry on November 5, 2026 at Montgomery Community College in Troy, NC. The main program will begin with a networking hour from 5 - 6 pm. Dinner will be served at 6 pm with a word from our sponsors. From 6:30 - 7:30 pm, Jacob Comer from Quail Forever (quailforever.org) and Gregory Godwin from NC WRC (ncwildlife.gov) will speak on government funding opportunities and managing land for wildlife value. Please register by Oct. 30.
