³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Forester Training and Endorsement in NY

Our Goals
Creating a national network of professional foresters who provide high-quality habitat for birds, at scale.
What We’re Doing
Providing an official ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ endorsement to foresters who have completed our bird-friendly forestry training curriculum. Endorsed foresters have access to our wide landowner base and ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ will promote and support their ongoing habitat work.

"Quality habitat for birds and other wildlife." This goal remains one of the top management objectives for northeast forest landowners.

³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ is excited to assist consulting, agency, industry, and procurement foresters in meeting these land management objectives through our ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Forester Training and Endorsement Program, active here in New York and five other states.

The content of this training can be applied to private and public land and is compatible with many objectives, including timber production, water quality, recreation, and carbon sequestration.
