Find a Community Forest
Forests Bring Communities Together
A forest is an indispensable part of any community. It can create a focal point for any community and provide endless opportunities for education, recreation, art, acts of service, wellness, awareness, and making memories with loved ones. The Community Forest designation is a subset of the Network Forest program where we recognize forests that are closely tied to the fabric of communities and serve as important ambassadors to larger, wilder forests, which might be farther away or harder to visit for some. We like to think of Community Forests as your favorite neighborhood coffee shop or your go-to pair of hiking boots: familiar, beloved, and always within arm’s reach.
Explore Community Forests currently in the Old-Growth Forest Network through the Community Forest Spotlight, or keep scrolling for a comprehensive list of all Community Forests. Submit a nomination if you want to add your community forest to the list!
