Tree Farm Program

The Tree Farm Program is a certification system that recognizes private landowners who manage their forests sustainably, balancing timber production, wildlife habitat, and environmental health. Landowners meet specific standards for forest management, conservation, and responsible harvesting practices. Certification provides assurance to buyers, communities, and regulators that the forest is well-managed, promoting healthy ecosystems and renewable resources. The program also encourages education and the sharing of best practices among landowners to ensure forests remain productive and vibrant for future generations.
