Celebrating the most forested nation in the USA

#101 Part 1
America's Forests with Chuck Leavell celebrates our nation's woodlands. On this episode, Chuck visits Maine - the most forested state in the USA. Chuck begins his journey through Maine with a Wabanaki native guide. He goes fly-fishing at the base of Katahdin where private lands welcome public visitors. He visits a state-of-the-art factory making building insulation out of wood chips and tries his hand at competitive tree-felling at the Game of Logging. And he finishes up playing rollicking old-time logging songs given new life by contemporary musicians.

#102 Part 2
On this episode of America's Forests, host Chuck Leavell continues his journey through Maine, a state with a long and storied relationship with the mighty forests here. He visits conservation organizations that are critical players in keeping woodlands intact. Chuck joins native Wabanaki as they harvest an Ash tree for the long tradition of basketmaking. He learns about what it takes to become a certified master logger. Chuck finishes up at the Vic Firth drumstick factory where he makes the signature Charlie Watts stick.
