Celebrate the 100 Years of Forestry from the best place possible – anywhere you are!
April 1-30, 2025
We’re excited to share this first opportunity from the Department of Forest Resources and Environmental Conservation exclusively with our fellow Hokies, those who have graduated with a degree in any of the majors associated with the department and who best understand firsthand the benefits, the beauty, and the importance of our trees and our forests.
Our forests, whether the trees in our yard or trees in our urban environment, or in our parks or National Forests, or dominating our rural landscapes are an amazing connection to the world around us. This month, take time to celebrate and appreciate the trees and forests near you—walk among the trees, identify the trees in your yard or park, plant a new tree, share a photo of your favorite tree, or simply pause to listen to the wind in the trees and observe the animals who inhabit our trees and forests. Let’s honor the trees and forests in our lives in this special celebration! You can celebrate in any way that best reflects your appreciation of trees, forests, our forested landscapes, or even in the many products we derive from trees!
The virtual celebration is all about connecting with the natural world – together. The alumni of our Department of Forest Resources and Environmental Conservation get the first opportunity to be a part of the celebration of 100 years of forestry at Virginia Tech! This offer will open to all College of Natural Resources and Environment alumni and friends in two weeks.
Your $30 registration includes:
- Your choice of a limited-edition ‘47 brand baseball cap or a limited-edition gray t-shirt
- A 100 Years of Forestry decal
A portion of your registration for this virtual event ($5) will support the Department of Forest Resources and Environmental Conservation Annual Fund. This fund enables the department to support students, faculty and staff throughout the year with various programs that would not be possible without generous philanthropic donors.
Please note, only one registration per person is allowed, if you would like to get both items please register an additional person.
If you choose to have your T-shirt or hat mailed to you, it will be shipped to the address you provide at checkout. If you choose to pick up your item on campus, we will notify you via email when they are ready.
