Minnesota's Forest Legacy Partnership is working with landowners, loggers, outdoor enthusiasts and communities to preserve our forests for timber, jobs, recreation and wildlife habitat.
The Partnership has established a multi-million dollar capital fund that will help ensure sustainable forestry, protect wildlife habitat and guarantee public access in the large, industrial forests in the Itasca area of north-central Minnesota. The Partnership has set a three-year, $26 million goal to conserve working forests. The Minnesota Forest Legacy Partnership includes The Conservation Fund, the Blandin Foundation, Grand Rapids Chamber of Commerce, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, the Minnesota Forest Resources Council, Minnesota Deer Hunters Association, Minnesota Forest Industries Inc., The Nature Conservancy and the Trust for Public Land.
In 2007, the Partnership completed the single largest conservation transaction in Minnesota in at least a decade, acquiring a conservation easement on 51,000 acres of working forests, habitat and recreation lands in the Minnesota Northwoods. Read more>
