Williams College students Abby Matheny and Sabrine Brismeur worked on this semester-long project in the Fall of 2021 that focused on giving recommendations to the Woodlands Partnership on the potential establishment of a Forest Center in the region. Their recommendations are based on background research, stakeholder feedback, and an exploration of potential locations for a Center, taking into account the Partnership's mission to support forest conservation, natural resource-based economic development, and improve municipal financial stability.

As part of the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts Green Living Seminar Series, board Chair Hank Art gave a presentation on the Mohawk Trail Woodlands Partnership on March 30, 2022. Hank gives an in-depth overview of the Partnership and discusses topics that include sustainable uses of the landscape, local wood and wood processing, promotion of sustainable forest management, and the diverse forest types and forest vulnerabilities of the region.
