The Alabama Forestry Foundation recently brought Alabama and Tennessee landowners together for a unique white oak field day with the Jack Daniel Distillery. 🌳🥃
The group began at Miss Mary Bobo’s Restaurant, where Jack Daniel’s Master Distiller Chris Fletcher shared the distillery’s commitment to the White Oak Initiative and the importance of protecting this valuable resource for generations to come.
From there, Tennessee landowner Allie Richman welcomed the group onto her family’s property to see firsthand how they manage their forests for multiple products. The visit provided a great opportunity to see thoughtful forest management in action and exchange ideas with fellow landowners.
The group also toured the Jack Daniel Distillery, gaining a behind-the-scenes look at the role white oak plays in the production of one of Tennessee’s most iconic products.
Field days like this give landowners the opportunity to learn from one another, see different approaches to managing their woods, and build relationships that extend beyond the field.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and to our hosts and partners who made this trip such a memorable experience!
