Restoration!

Our restoration thinning crew is working hard to help improve the forest so that it provides better wildlife habitat.

Above is one of the piles of small suppressed trees removed from the forest. By reducing the number of trees per acre we are allowing for the remaining trees to thrive and for the understory to begin to establish.

A tree ring says a thousand words! Notice how large the space between rings were and then as it became too crowded in the forest the tree becomes stressed and grows much more slowly resulting in very little space between rings.
