Inspectors

Tree Farm certifications are done by trained inspecting foresters who volunteer their time and expertise to certify family forest owners who are practicing forestry in a sustainable manner.

To become a certified ATFS inspecting forester, individuals must have graduated from a 4-year forestry curriculum and attend a half-day training session. Sessions are offered at various times around the state.

If you are a forester who is interested in becoming involved in the Washington Tree Farm Program, please send a message expressing your interest to info@watreefarm.org and someone will contact you about the next training session.
