Forest Farming Online is designed to train technical service providers (e.g., service foresters with government agencies, Extension professionals, forest management consultants), but is freely available to the public. This course begins with one introductory module, which you must complete first. It includes information pertaining to the basics of forest farming and takes approximately one hour to complete. A series of video and webinar clips from the coalition’s YouTube and webinar library have been compiled to present key forest farming considerations such as, what is it?, how do you do it?, what crops are popular?, how do you add value?, etc. Questions are included for you to complete along the way. Module 1 is expected to take approximately one hour to complete and it guides users to videos that follow a specific list of topics in the curriculum. Questions are linked to specific videos or video segments within topics in the outline. You should plan on spending about 20 minutes per topic.
