Forest Certification
Forest certifications are based on a series of Standards and Verification procedures coupled with 1st, 2nd, or third party audits that ensure that the management practices happening at the ground level follow the certifying bodies standard. These standards include the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI), and The American Tree Farm program. Certified forest products typically recieve a higher premium in the marketplace, resulting in an increased return on investment to the landowner.
Sustainable Solutions can guide clients who own or manage forest land on the path to forest certification.
