Forestry Board Meetings
Forestry Board News
The Calvert Forestry Board is a group of citizens who serve as advocates for forestry in Calvert County. Currently we have seven members that have a wide variety of backgrounds including business, teaching, and publishing.

The Board is funded annually by a grant from the Board of Calvert County Commissioners. The Forestry Board uses these resources to support various forest education and awareness activities throughout the County. Just a few examples include the Calvert Envirothon, the Arbor Day Poster Contest, the School Forest Program, the fall Tree Farm Tour, the Natural Resources Careers Camp, and this web site. The Board is committed to promoting the benefits of sustainable forest management in Calvert County. Our logo features the bald cypress tree, the official tree of Calvert County.
Please take a few minutes to check out our new web site, we designed it for you! Click HERE to view one of our highlights featuring early forest conservationists of Calvert County.

Southern Middle School Forest Planting

The planting was funded by the Calvert County Forestry Board, through a Mel Noland Challenge grant from the Maryland Forestry Foundation.  The grant funds were used to purchase 20 trees and a school forest sign (to be installed later).  The trees were purchased through the Forest Service's Tree-mendous program. 
Four trees of each of the following species were planted:
Northern red oak
White oak
Tulip poplar
Red maple
Sycamore
