🌲🪵 A Day in the Life of a Woodhick! 🪓🌳
Our forestry classes recently traveled to the Pennsylvania Lumber Museum to participate in Woodhick Day!
Students had the opportunity to step back in time and experience what life was like during Pennsylvania’s logging era. Throughout the day, they explored historic logging equipment, watched blacksmithing and sawmill demonstrations, learned about tools used by early lumberjacks, and discovered how the lumber industry helped shape Pennsylvania's history.
Students also learned about tree and wildlife identification, forestry careers, the Civilian Conservation Corps, and what everyday life was like in an old-fashioned logging camp.
It was a great opportunity for students to connect what we have been learning in the classroom to real-world forestry practices and Pennsylvania's rich lumbering history!
