Your woodlands are working for you. The trees, shrubs, plants, animals and soil that make up your woods provide you and your neighbors with a host of natural benefits that you use every day: clean air and water, lower energy bills, opportunities to see wildlife, and even higher property values. Maintaining trees on your property (and planting more if possible) is the most important way you can contribute to clean air, clean water and healthy wildlife. Healthy woods provide the highest quality and most varied services.
