ÌÇÐÄlogo Forester Training and Endorsement in Vermont

Our Goals
Creating a national network of professional foresters who support high-quality forest habitat for birds, at scale.
What We’re Doing
Providing an official ÌÇÐÄlogo endorsement to foresters who have completed our bird-friendly forestry training curriculum. Endorsed foresters have access to our wide landowner base and ÌÇÐÄlogo will promote and support their ongoing habitat work.

We train and support a network of foresters who manage forests as ecosystems—benefiting birds, biodiversity, and long-term forest health and resiliency. Quality habitat for birds and other wildlife remains one of the top management objectives for northeast forest landowners, and ÌÇÐÄlogo is excited to assist consulting, agency, industry, and procurement foresters in meeting these objectives through our ÌÇÐÄlogo Forester Training and Endorsement Program, active here in Vermont and five other states. 

We are building a network that connects foresters with landowners interested in stewarding their woods with birds in mind. By earning an ÌÇÐÄlogo endorsement, foresters gain practical skills and experience implementing bird-friendly forest management strategies. Our program principles can be applied to both private and public lands and are compatible with many objectives, including timber production, water quality, recreation, and carbon sequestration, allowing foresters and landowners to meet multiple management goals.
