Program areas at American Forest Foundation
Woodlands: leveraging over 80 years of working with family Forest owners to care for their land, the American Forest Foundation's (aff) woodlands portfolio spans various programmatic efforts to increase the amount of family forests under sustainable active management. Whether addressing wildfire threats, providing access and opportunity for underserved landowners, building community through the American tree farm system, or promoting biodiversity and conservation, aff's woodlands work all centers on delivering meaningful environmental and economic impact via america's family-owned forestlands which comprise 39% of all us forests.
Climate mitigation: harnessing the power of family forests as a critical element in the fight against climate change, aff continues its work to unleash the potential for family Forest owners to achieve their goals while making important environmental and economic contributions. Through expanding access and reducing barriers to the voluntary carbon market for family Forest owners, aff is working with thousands of landowners to care for their land, improve Forest health, and increase timber growth. Within the family Forest carbon program, landowners can adopt long-term sustainable management that improves carbon sequestration and storage while balancing other essential Forest benefits.
