Young Forest Guide
Introduction
This publication seeks to familiarize people with young forest and to inspire them to create such habitat – both to benefit wildlife and to increase their own enjoyment of nature and the land.
Written for private landowners, it should also be useful for those who manage public lands, such as state wildlife areas, parks, or forests; town or county forests; and nature preserves, land trust properties, and hunting clubs. It’s not meant to be a how-to manual but rather an introduction, fostering a basic understanding about an important habitat on which many kinds of wildlife depend.
