“FOR THE PAST 90+ YEARS, MY FAMILY HAS TAKEN THE APPROACH OF SLOW, METHODICAL REMOVAL, FOCUSING MORE ON WHAT WE’RE LEAVING BEHIND THAN WHAT WE’RE TAKING. WE’RE BENEFITING TODAY FROM MY GRANDFATHER’S DECISIONS DECADES AGO. TODAY, WE TRY TO DO THE SAME FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE MUST ADAPT TO A CHANGING CLIMATE AND INCREASE CARBON STORAGE.”

We are entering the largest inter-generational turnover of family forestland in our history, and of unprecedented attention to the value of well-managed natural lands. As millions of family forest owners across the United States plan for the future and prepare for their land to change hands to the next generation, carbon offsets have become an essential tool to generate additional sustainable revenue. We work with family forest landowners of all sizes to connect their lands to the carbon offset market.
