One Family's Forest

Foreword: ""One Family's Forest" is a story about people and place, about a family and the land that sustained them, land they deeply loved. It is a story of challenges and how the challenges were overcome as they strived to keep the family farm they all cherished intact for future generations. It is a story that can help every landowner keep their land intact and maintain the health and productivity of the land for the long haul. The authors bring decades of academic and practical experience to this non-technical how-to guide that can help farmers and forest land owners plan for the future. "One Family's Forest" is about a family's relationship with the land, and the methods they applied to sustain the health and productivity of farmland forest. This book turns the concept of "sustainability" into actual practice for the everyday landowner. It brings conservation to reality on the land."
