The forest products industry and landowners plant over 6 million new tree seedlings each day in this country. Young hardwood seedlings will be planted on the site this spring when the time is right for their growth.
Hardwoods also have the ability to naturally seed themselves or sprout from roots from cut trees.
Much of the hardwood forests are planted by water and animals, such as squirrels and birds. The wood community works hard under all kings of adverse weather conditions for planting trees, managing timberlots, Timber stand improvement, and harvesting the crop. Our efforts supply fiber for millions of books, and newspapers each year. Also sawlogs supply wood for building homes, furniture, and flooring. Remember, even your paycheck is a forest product.
