Chainsaw/Felling Training RI Area

[joejkd]

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to ask this, but I'm looking to get some training in chainsaw work with regards to harvesting trees for firewood. I have some experience felling trees over the past year, but I've never had any formal training.

I can't seem to find anywhere in the southern New England area offering this kind of training. There's a guy who does GOL in CT, but I emailed him and didn't receive a response.

I can easily get to Mass, Connecticut and obviously anywhere in Rhode Island. If anyone could point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.

Try talking to DEM, when I was on the fire department in Western Coventry the state put on a chainsaw awareness class.  The class was somewhat informational, more geared for the person who has never used a chainsaw though.
