Where we are headed - a biodiverse forest of softwoods, hardwoods and complementary grasses
Forest Management at Walton Plantation

The ATFS and the Florida Forestry Association provide guidelines for forest management and production. The ATFS certification of a group tree farm is the highest starndard of monitoring and management. Walton Plantation recieved this certification in 2007.
