Woodlot Planning
Why make a plan?
Whether your goals lean towards harvesting, recreation, or conservation, forests consistently generate value, making them a wise element of a well-diversified investment portfolio. Like so many things, maximizing value requires a plan. Developing a management plan ensures that your values are brought to the fore along your journey to woodlot success.
During planning, Stoic Land Use promotes the philosophy of ecosystem management, which encourages resource managers to consider how ecosystems function without human impacts so that any extractive processes can better leverage the inherent regenerative capacity of forests for long-term gain.
The pursuit of ecosystem management remains a deeply personal process. A critically important outcome of ecosystem management is the sense of pride that achieving goals instills in the mind and heart of a landowner.
Well-executed ecosystem management generates wealth for landowners, joy for society, and habitat for local wildlife.
