Understanding these is important. The decisions you make now could shape your forestry and carbon revenue opportunities for decades.

There was a real drive with the companies we spoke with to lease our land and plant it in pines, but we were never comfortable with that. 

We have 6k acres of native regenerating forest and we thought that should be worth something.
