FREE FOREST STEWARDSHIP PLANS FOR PRIVATE WOODLAND OWNERS
The Kentucky Division of Forestry prepares Forest Stewardship Plans
for private woodland owners as a free service.
At your request, a forester will walk over your property with you
while explaining the condition of your woodland and listening to your
objectives. The forester will then make recommendations to help you
set and achieve management goals for your forestland. The
recommendations will be summarized in the Forest Stewardship Plan
which will include information on timber production, fish and
wildlife management and management for recreation, aesthetics and
water quality.
If you are interested in improving your forestland economically and
ecologically call the Division of Forestry in Campbellsville at
1-800-866-1007.
