SAF National Convention
The theme “The Resources We Manage” references all the considerations that forestry and natural resources professionals need to reflect on when planning and implementing decisions on the ground. Resources mean many things to land managers -- the values on the landscape, the services needed like air, water, food and fiber, the budget we work within, the tools we use, and the people we work with. As the field of forestry evolves, forestry professionals are expanding their management skillsets to include expertise in new technologies, emerging forest product markets, community outreach, and other areas. Join us to learn from your peers, grow your network within and beyond the sector, and develop as a forestry professional.
