Beginners Chainsaw Training
October 12 @ 9:00 am - 2:30 pm
$35 – $50
Want to learn how to use a chainsaw but don’t know how to get started? Join The Land Conservancy’s ecologist, Megan Oropeza, to learn the basics of safely using a chainsaw in a hands-on way. You will learn:
- What protective equipment to use and wear
- Basic chainsaw maintenance
- Techniques for safely felling a tree and cutting it up
Participants are welcome to bring their own protective equipment such as leather gloves, safety glasses, earplugs and chaps, and we will have some for people to use during the class as well. This class is tailored to beginners who have never used a chainsaw. Please bring lunch and water.
Fee: $35 TLC members, $50 nonmembers
