Forest Service

The Forest Service is a branch of the U.S. Department of Agriculture responsible for managing national forests and grasslands. Its primary mission is to protect these natural resources, promote sustainable land use, and provide recreational opportunities for the public. The organization focuses on forest health, wildlife habitat preservation, and wildfire management, ensuring that these areas remain safe and accessible for future generations. By balancing environmental conservation with community needs, the Forest Service plays a vital role in maintaining America’s forests and supporting outdoor activities like hiking, camping, and fishing.
