How to Gather (Template)

**We have included a format for a generic question when the customer hasn't included which forest they are going to and then a forest specific template that includes a direct link to the "How to gather your firewood" section on the information page.

Hi NAME,

My name is ______ from the Open Forest Customer Support Staff and I’m following up on your email asking about how to gather your firewood. Fortunately we have a great section on each Forest’s permit page entitled “How to gather your firewood”. Some of detailsin this section can change from forest to forest. So, be sure you’ve selected the forest you intend to gather your firewood from. If you’d like I can send you a direct link. Which forest were you planning on visiting?

Thanks for using Open Forest!
