Note
Tour of the recent fairly extensive clearcut at Tulmeadow farm - roughly 27 acres. Looks really nice, if you are the kind of person who appreciates a clearcut, and it will be interesting to see the young forest develop. I got invited by the forester, my friend Jim Gillespie. Jim spoke, as did the landowner, Don Tuller, and the loggers Carl and Scott. Carl operates one of those high-tech machines that cuts the trees, limbs them up and cuts them to length, all while he operates from inside the cab. Too bad the machine wasn't there too. Bill D was also there, and nice to visit with him a bit. Also Margery Winters, whom I haven't seen in a while. She used to come here as a naturalist when we had field trips for the Canton school kids at our place.
