Thinning Links and Resources
There are many resources available to help you thin your woods.
Not sure whether a pre-commercial or commercial thinning is right for you? Too overwhelmed to map your tree stands or define your goals? There’s help available. You can contact
- Your county, district or consulting forester
- Your Cooperative Extension Service local office
- Your local USDA Service Center
- The USDA Forest Service Landowner Assistance Program
If you’re concerned about the cost of a pre-commercial thinning, a number of cost-share and landowner assistance programs can ease the burden.
