The forests of New England are challenged by many factors, including invasive species and climate change. Silviculture on the Yale Forests strives to mitigate these challenges while maintaining a diverse, healthy ecosystem that will continue to support human use and ensure ecological integrity. We also use our forest as a living laboratory to trial forest management techniques while providing education opportunities which showcase these applied research approaches. The environmental, social, and economic benefits of our forest management is third party certified.
