90 Years Later: Learning From the Largest Windbreak Planting in the United States

Hosted by The Savannah Institute

Join us in conversation with Landscape Architecture Professor, Sarah Karle, and National Agroforestry Center’s Gary Bentrup, to discuss the social and agricultural impacts of FDR’s “Great Wall of Trees” that spanned Texas to North Dakota–over 18,000 square miles of farmland. Facilitated by the Savanna Institute’s MJ Oviatt, Sarah and Gary will also highlight never-before-seen photos, maps, and primary source material from their newly published Prairie State Forestry Project Digital Archive.
