Chainsaw class at Duluth Folk School
September 9, 2016

I Just Got a Chainsaw and I Don’t Really Know What I’m Doing!

After the big August storm in Duluth left so many downed trees, we’ve had several requests for a class on how to use a chainsaw safely. We’re proud to announce that this class is now open for registration!

This is a great opportunity, either for people who just got their first chainsaw, or for people who have had a chainsaw for a while, but have never really been 100% comfortable with using it.

We will make sure you understand what type of safety equipment you should wear when cutting and where to obtain it. Finally, you will have a hands-on opportunity to practice the safe use of a chainsaw while cutting some small downed logs.

We will not be felling standing trees.
