Working for healthy forests, quality environmental education, and informed decision-making about our communities and our world.
The American Forest Foundation is part of the Bird Conservation Alliance and rightly so. AFF’s mission is to ensure sustainable forestry so that family owned forests remain healthy for generations to come. By creating sustainable tree farming, people and birds can both benefit.
AFF publishes the Tree Farmer, the Guide to Sustaining America’s Family Forests which is the official magazine of the American Tree Farm System.
Currently, there are 87,000 certified Tree Farms covering 29 million acres, approximately 60 percent of forestland, in 46 states.
Often it is the non-bird related organizations that are providing a lot of conservation for birds.
