Forest Farming Extension

We are forest farmers, university faculty, and agency personnel working together to provide useful and credible information to farmers who are interested in forest farming. Through expertise and collaboration, communities can enhance the value of their forest and agricultural landscapes. Integration of understory crops within the forest can help boost native plant populations and can provide an alternative source of income for landowners. The suite of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) is quite vast but is contingent upon regional climate and forest type. The videos posted on this channel are meant to provide detailed information on a variety of NTFPs, including their natural ecosystem, methods of propagation, and harvest times. Please visit our website, eXtension.org/forest_farming, for more information. To see our entire library of NTFP videos, please visit our YouTube Channel.
