Restoring Health and Beauty to Forestlands
in the Wildland-Urban Interface
Interface Forestry works with diverse forest landowners to meet their individual stewardship needs. We recognize that today's forest owners face a wide range of management issues that require thoughtful solutions.
Whether you own a modest residential parcel in the wildland-urban interface or a forested spread covering thousands of acres, we can help you plan and manage your forestlands.
Treatments mimic natural ecological processes to produce a wide range of forest values ranging from aesthetically pleasing spaces to sustainably harvested timber to carbon sequestration, edible mushrooms and biomass for fuel.
Communications, recommendations, and reports are easy to understand; we write them for the non-technical reader. Feel free to e-mail us or call us by telephone at (406) 239-1171. We will NOT give or sell your e-mail address to anyone.
