Family Forest Carbon Program

The PA Forestry Association would like to announce the American Forest Foundation in partnership with The Nature Conservancy  has launched a pilot carbon sequestration incentive program in selected areas of Pennsylvania called the Family Forest Carbon Program.

The Family Forest Carbon Program is designed to be easily accessible to small landowners, removing the barriers landowners often face—access, lack of expertise and cost—to help them manage and optimize their family forests for carbon sequestration.
