New England Forestry Foundation (NEFF) was founded in 1944 to encourage more prudent use of New England's forests, which suffered from poor harvesting practices and a lack of good management planning. Today, NEFF is a recognized leader in sustainable forest management, conservation, forestry education, and assisting landowners in the long-term protection and management of their properties. NEFF owns and manages over 140 Community Forests, totaling more than 26,000 acres across New England. We also hold over 150 conservation easements, protecting more than 1,145,000 acres of forestland. NEFF is reviewed by the American Tree Farm System and the Forest Stewardship Council so that its activities meet the economic, social, cultural, and environmental needs of present and future generations.
