The Land Trust for Tennessee will provide a continuing forest management program as part of their responsibility for the conservation easement. Managing the forests is very important due to the length of time it takes to grow a mature tree. There is great income value in the trees as lumber and wood products and also a greater value to the bats and other species for habitat. If one includes the esthetic value of the trees, the management of the forests requires a detailed plan and attentive execution to balance the important resource.
