Forestry Assistance

Foresters are knowledgeable and experienced in many of the land management challenges that face landowners. Along with the resources below, you may want to visit the DNR's Forestry Assistance Locator. The site has the most up-to-date information to help you find the right forester for you. You may also want to go to the UW Extension's Meet the Basin Educators for additional assistance.

Below you'll find publications on foresters as well as other cost-share and grant programs. Cost-share programs are constantly changing and the existing publications are an incomplete picture of what is available. For the latest, most complete, information on grants and cost-share program visit the DNR's Cost-share information site.

For more information on managing your woodlands, you may visit the UW Extension's Managing Your Woodlands site.

You may also want to look at www.digitalgrove.net for tools to create your own maps.
