The New York Tree Farm Program, part of the American Tree Farm System, is dedicated to promoting the sustainable management of renewable forest resources on private lands throughout New York State. Their mission focuses on enhancing environmental benefits and fostering a greater public understanding of the advantages of productive forestry.

With nearly 1,500 certified Tree Farms in New York, the program supports family forest owners in their commitment to protect wildlife habitats, conserve soil, and provide recreational opportunities while contributing to the production of wood resources. This initiative emphasizes the vital role private stewardship plays in sustaining forests, watersheds, and healthy habitats for future generations.
