Woodlot Management

Woodlot or forest management is the practical application of scientific, economic, and social principles to achieve forest stewardship goals. The trees we see today are here because of the climate, topography, soils and past uses of the land.  Forest management and silviculture give us the tools to help us shape what our forests will look like in the future.
