You can help ensure that diverse family forests are a part of our future in protecting our environment, economy, communities and culture by supporting Family Forests of Oregon.

Family Forests of Oregon was launched in 2005 thanks to help from our supporters and volunteers.

We have come together to address the issues that affect the complex connection between the land, family forest land owners and society.

In 2006 with our partner OSWA we hope to launch our Forest Neighbors project. The family owners will tell their stories in their own words, giving us insight into the motivations for continuing to own family forest land.

In 2007, We also worked with OSWA to offer a new set of outreach programs that brought woodland owners and others together to help plan and shape the future of our family woodlands. We are looking to continue these grass roots efforts in 2008.
