JOIN THE FORESTRY SECTOR: SECURE OUR FORESTS
SECURE OUR FUTURE
with Sustainable Careers
Minnesota’s forests have always been dynamic. Wildfires and windstorms historically killed overstory trees and started the growth of young forests. Wild animals evolved with this habitat. They eat the new shoots and berries and use the dense young trees to escape predators. Deer, moose, grouse, woodcock and bears all benefit from young forest. But wildfires can no longer be allowed to shape the forest because of the danger to our communities. Thoughtful logging, performed by forestry professionals, creates young forests. Safeguards are in place to protect tribal cultural resources, our water, our soil, rare animals, and other habitat features.
Our forests are vital to our environment, heritage, and future. As a member of Minnesota’s tribal communities, you have a unique opportunity to combine traditional knowledge with modern forestry practices to protect and manage our lands. Explore rewarding careers in the forestry sector today and play a crucial role in preserving our natural resources for future generations. Explore Minnesota forest industry careers
