A quiet and unassuming man, he led by example, and inspired many of his students to put the principles of forest ecology to work in their own lives. His own property became a glowing example - 20 acres of pasture land that he allowed to regenerate as nature intended. He led annual field trips for the forestry students through the forest trails that he created within that wonderful space. It is a thrill for us to be able to assist another young environmental steward through this scholarship, and our thanks goes out to Lennie Gallant for making this possible.Get your ticket today!
