Forester Activity Badge

When we did the Forester activity badge, we combined it with several other requirements!  It worked great.


We planned a longer den meeting.  We drove up to the mountains near where we live, to a place where we could see enough species of trees and other plants to pass off those requirements.  While we were out, we went on our hike (Arrow of Light requirement) to look at what we needed to see.  We also did our conservation project (Outdoorsman requirement) while we were there—we picked up litter in the parking area and also along the trail.  We were able to complete the entire Forester activity badge in one den meeting, as well as the hike and conservation project.  We will be doing it the same way again!  The only thing we would do differently is to schedule a half-day instead of several hours.
