Highlighting the importance of young forests
This International Day of the Forest, Winnakee is highlighting the importance of young forests.
Many animals need young forest and shrubland for foraging and breeding, including rare and imperiled animals like the New England cottontail and golden-winged warbler, as well as more abundant wildlife.
Forests today also face unprecedented challenges that hinder their natural regeneration.
Winnakee recognizes that forests require timely stewardship action if we are to sustain them into the future. Learn more about our young forest work.
