Women In Timber Conference Registration Now Open

In January, the Carolina Women In Timber formally adopted their new organization name, the National Assn. of Women in Timber (NAWT), to better reflect their national expansion.

The 7th Annual Conference will be two full days of education, including a session on the life of a loblolly pine stand and a tree identification field activity, plus networking socials, June 4–5, 2026, in Georgetown, South Carolina. Registration is now open, and early bird pricing ends April 15.
