Why a Landscape Approach
Many Appalachian forests are exhausted from past use and susceptible to threats in the form of climate change (extreme weather and wildfire), invasive pests (plants and insects) and development pressures. These current conditions require a landscape scale approach to best prepare forestland for the future. This project will increase the pace of ecological forestry and add capacity to state agencies and forestry professionals.
This project is supported by the US Forest Service Southern Region’s Landscape Scale Restoration grant program and is support of the North Carolina Forest Action Plan. EcoForesters is an equal opportunity provider.
