Puget Sound Area Forest Stewardship Coached Planning courses
A forestry course for property owners
Our flagship course will teach you how to assess your trees, avoid insect and disease problems, attract wildlife, and take practical steps to keep your forest on track to provide enjoyment and even income for years to come. In this course you will develop your own Forest Stewardship Plan, which brings state recognition as a Stewardship Forest, may help qualifying landowners enroll in reduced property tax or conservation cost-share grant programs.
