Stewardship Programs

Idaho has abundant forest land. Many people do not realize that over 2 million acres (11% of Idaho’s forests) are owned and managed by thousands of non-industrial private owners. Each landowner has unique goals for his or her forest property, ranging from timber income to simply "a place to get away from it all". However, one goal common to most forest landowners is to steward their forest land, for their own goals and future generations. The educational programs listed here are designed to help private forest owners and those who work with them strengthen their forest stewardship skills.
