Project Overview
This project will address two of the most practical, widely accepted, and urgent needs related to forest habitat restoration in Northeast Minnesota: conifer restoration and improvement in forest productivity.
Restoration of commercially and ecologically important long lived conifer species and reforestation of understocked stands will be implemented on state and county forestland in Northeast Minnesota. The project will provide continued funding for current forest restoration projects initiated by the Manitou and Sand Lake Seven Beavers Collaboratives and fund new projects planned by these multi landowner land management partnerships.
