Look for Your Local Forestry Association

Wednesday July 8, 2009
Nearly every state and province has a forestry association that represents forestry practiced by both the forest owner and forestry trade organizations. These forestry associations are designed to protect timber growers and timber processors from excessive regulation, provide them with continuing education in the effort to grow and harvest trees and recognize excellent forest stewardship. Here are many of the largest forestry associations in North America. Let me know if I missed your favorite!
