Conservation District honors Chestnut Ridge forest stewards, woodlands group

Forest steward Lewis Lobdell and his wife, Kate, examine an experimental strain of American Chestnut tree growing in August on their wooded property on Chestnut Ridge in Unity and Ligonier townships.

Westmoreland Conservation District will head into the woods, figuratively, Thursday as it presents its annual conservation awards to a local couple who are reviving wooded acreage on Chestnut Ridge and to a nonprofit organization that supports such efforts.
