“There are over 11 million private forest owners in the United States who collectively own 421 million acres or 56 percent of the forest land in the United States. The fate of much of the nation’s forests lies in the hands of this diverse and dynamic group of people and organizations.” Brett Butler, National Woodland Owner Survey – U.S. Forest Service.
