A choice to

reduce the risk of wildfire could save not only your land but also that

of your neighbors. Another choice of actively managing forested land increases

the financial investment in the property, increases recreational opportunities

for you, your family and friends, as well as many other attributes that

can be afforded.

Overall, you

are taking charge and the benefits can be enormous. Instituting wise management

practices can cost very little. There are cost-share program available

to help begin some of the practices.

The Georgia

Forestry Commission is responsible for helping landowners formulate management

practices for their land. It can be as simple as a general management

plan or as elaborate as a Forest Stewardship Plan. In either case there

is no charge for these services.

For more information

on how to make your property more profitable and enjoyable, contact your

Georgia Forestry Commission forester at 770-254-7218.
