Timber will continue to be the primary focus, but GFEI is also taking advantage of new opportunities to create value from group timber sales, silviculture for carbon storage, small scale value-added manufacturing and long-term silviculture planning with respect to better use of lands and biodiversity while maintaining a strong commitment to forest stewardship.
