Promote Forest Stewardship In Minnesota...
With the Minnesota Forestry Association (MFA)
Minnesota's forests are a valuable asset. Trees grow on almost 17
million acres of land in the state, and private non-industrial landowners
manage nearly 43% of this important resource.
Forest products account for a significant part of the state's economy. Forests
also offer countless hours of pleasure for various recreational pursuits,
as well as, providing food and shelter for a diverse population of fish and
wildlife.
The growing demands for forest products and recreational opportunities place
increasing pressures on the forest ecosystem. However, with careful management,
our forests can meet these increasing demands, now and into the future.
MFA serves Minnesota's woodland owners by promoting stewardship of all forest
resources. MFA is Minnesota's oldest conservation organization, founded in
1876 to promote wise stewardship of forest lands. We believe that by working
together, we can manage our forests to meet present and future demands for
wood products while maintaining an aesthetically-pleasing and
ecologically-healthy forest environment. Become a member today!
