Collaboration
The TIES TO THE LAND project team formed in response to a shared concern about the consequences of a wave of unplanned transfers of private forestland on the fabric of families, communities and ecosystems in Oregon. We know this issue is relevant beyond Oregon, and in natural resource dependent communities besides forestry.
The team's objectives include collaborating with other interested groups and organizations to:
» Develop and deliver succession planning programs to family woodland landowners and tree farmers throughout the country
» Build broader public awareness of the issue
» Develop strategies and networks to address other issues including policy analysis, professional development
