• Key features of a successful community forest
  program
• The community benefits from resources conserved.
• Community members support a conservation ethic
  and take pride in managing land for future
  generations.
• Diverse viewpoints are respected and
  incorporated into the master plan. A combination
  of working forests, special management areas, and
  ecological reserves create a balanced approach.
