Welcome!
Welcome to the brand new website for Cornell Cooperative Extension of Columbia and Greene Counties! As this site develops and grows we hope you will be a frequent visitor and allow us to keep you informed and engaged with the educational programs and community mission of Cooperative Extension. We encourage your ideas and feedback so that we can continue to make changes and additions that will serve your needs and connect you to our programs and staff resources in a timely and interactive way.
Cooperative Extension has always been a people oriented organization that does its work through classes, workshops and person to person interactions in the community, on the farm and at the kitchen tables of our clientele. We expect this web site to provide new and important ways for us to interact and allow more people to discover the educational programs and opportunities available through Cornell Cooperative Extension.
Trained Logger Certification Courses
The Trained Logger Certification (TLC) program was developed to provide loggers a comprehensive training program that covers tree felling techniques, Forest Ecology and Silviculture practices and First Aid/CPR skills. For a listing of programs covering these three areas of importance to loggers, including the Game of Logging that teaches appropriate chainsaw use and safety courses, contact Marilyn Wyman at 518-622-9820 ext 36.
