Need for PA Forest Stewards
Over a half-million private landowners control more than 70 percent of Pennsylvania’s forests. Clearly, the decisions that individual landowners make shape both the short-term and long-term condition of forest resources in the Commonwealth. Those who are accepted for PAFS training will help encourage private forest landowners to implement sound forest management practices. Hundreds and, ultimately, thousands of others can learn about good forest management through this network of informed woodland owners.
