Sustainable Forestry Initiative

What is SFI ®

The Sustainable Forestry Initiative® program is a comprehensive system of principles, objectives and performance measures developed by professional foresters, conservationists scientists, and other stakeholders that combines the perpetual growing and harvesting of trees with the long-term protection of wildlife, plants, soil and water quality.

“The Sustainable Forestry Initiative will have terrific long-term payoffs for improved forest conservation in the United States.”  James W. Giltmier, Senior Fellow, Pinchot Institute for Conservation.
