IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0covering over 120,000 acres. In 2018, EcoForesters' staff: created the new forest development plan for the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and an in-depth geospatial analysis of the tribe's 50,000 acres of forest; completed an 8,600-acre forest carbon sequestration inventory; conducted three ecologically beneficial timber sales (e.g. oak restoration on a TNC preserve) across over 10,000 acres; partnered with other local nonprofit conservation organizations (including: The Nature Conservancy, SAHC, Conserving Carolina, Blue Ridge Forever, the Foothills Conservancy of NC, the State of TN, and the Organic Growers School among others) to help steward protected forests; provided GIS and geospatial analysis services to 6 forestland owners; and, led eight presentations for over 20 direct contact hours to educate over 250 forestland owners as well as natural resource students and professionals about ecologically beneficial forestry.
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0In particular, EcoForesters wrote 27 comprehensive forest stewardship plans to educate landowners and help conserve over 56,000 acres by allowing forestland owners to keep their forests forested by saving on property taxes while practicing sustainable forest management - including thorough recommendations providing for biodiversity, wildlife habitat, high water quality, forest health, beneficial timber management, recreation, and aesthetics. Specifically included in each plan are steps to address and control invasive plants and pests, as well as detailed advice on when and how to conduct ecological forestry to restore these forests from past abusive logging and create more biologically and structurally diverse, higher quality forests through emulating natural disturbance patterns. EcoForesters always strives to enhance woodlands for future generations while meeting the needs of current generations to both conserve and restore our Appalachian forests.
