What is Forest Stewardship?

Forest stewardship is the broad mission of finding the intersection between achieving goals and promoting values of forest landowners while helping maintain healthy, productive, and safe forests. Often this ranges from fish and wildlife habitat, scenic beauty, recreation, wildfire protection, timber and non-timber forest resources, and a host of other objectives. WSU Extension works to provide scientifically backed information and connect resource professionals to landowners seeking to become forest stewards. Our program includes field day events, demonstrations, workshops, professional seminars and clinics, and our flagship, the “Coached Planning” Forest Stewardship Shortcourse.
