Forest Operations
The SFPNA Sustainable Forestry Program only contracts with fully insured and trained logging professionals, such as a Certified Logging Professional (CLP), and many of our contractors are also Master Logger certified.


To meet the objectives of your woodlot, we contract with many operators who utilize several different harvesting systems for management. Some examples are:

• Conventional (chainsaw, skidder)
• Cut to Length (harvester/processor, forwarder)
• Full Tree/Tree Length (fellerbuncher, skidder, de-limber, chipper)
