American Tree Farm System
Privately owned woodlands are vital to our country's clean water and air, wildlife habitat, jobs, wood, and paper products we all need. ATFS-certified family forests meet nine standards of sustainability and are managed for water, wildlife, timber, and recreation. "The American Tree Farm System is a nationwide community of Tree Farmers with the same desires to leave the land better for the next generation," - Walt McPhail, 2012 National Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year.

Want to show off your Tree Farm pride? Thanks to our friends from the North Carolina Tree Farm Program, for a limited time landowners are able to purchase branded merchandise through a pop-up store. Just visit https://nctreefarm.ebloxstoreipu.com/ to place your order. In addition to apparel, there's a selection of other neat items including water bottles, growlers, and bags.
The pop-up store will close on September 23rd so spread the word and get your orders in. Note that order fulfillment will begin only after the pop-up store closes, so orders could take several weeks to arrive.
