Welcome to evergreenmagazine.com, an electronic news service of the non-profit Evergreen Foundation.

We provide this free service for only one reason: to provide timely information to individuals, groups and businesses that share our interest in and passion for the health and productivity of our nation's public and privately-owned forests.

Our constant goal is to provide you with a steady flow of current news, in-depth analysis and thoughtful perspective. Take a moment to scan the tool bar at the
top of this page. It is your key to our world.

We have been in this business since 1986, but we remain a work in progress and I dare say we always will be. We welcome your suggestions and criticisms. Thanks
for visiting our site. We hope you'll come back often.
