Trees part of heritage for award-winning Spring Lake, Wis., farm family

Through the front window of the Duane and Julie Kuesel home, a visitor notices some beautiful scenery, made even more appealing by the house’s high vantage point. A prominent feature of the surrounding countryside is the trees. For their care of the woodlands on their parcels, they’ll be presented a forestry award during the Pierce County Land Conservation banquet next month.
