This land has been owned, operated, and managed as an active working tree farm by a single individual since its purchase in 1979. During its many years as a Certified American Forest Foundation Tree Farm, Certified Forester's plans were followed for a rotation of woodland planting: from seedling growth to thinning to harvesting and replanting. For the length of this ownership, the farm has been in various stages of production to avoid the ugly and environmentally unfriendly cycle of crass, commercial, large-swath clear-cutting monocultural. Over the years a wide variety of sustainable tree species, both hard and soft have been established.
Given these environmental and wildlife considerations, the management program honors a careful protection and maintenance of natural creek beds, and encouragement for year-round wildlife populations.
This land has been lovingly cared for.
