About CFRC

Community Forestry Resource Center is a project of the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy, a Minneapolis-based nongovernmental organization.

Since 1998 CFRC has been working to promote responsible forest management by encouraging the long-term health and prosperity of small, privately-owned woodlots, their owners and their communities. CFRC collaborates with forestry cooperatives and landowner associations to develop resources and infrastructure to facilitate their healthy development. These organizations provide ways for landowners to work together and pursue good management of their forests.

CFRC also provides low-cost access to forest certification in accordance with the ten principles established by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) as a system to assure responsible forestry as well as recognize good forest management in the marketplace through the FSC label.
