Welcome to the Catskill Forest Association

Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrintE-mail

The Catskill Forest Association, also called "CFA," is a non-profit, membership organization dedicated to enhancing all aspects of the forest in New York's Catskill region.  The region has been known for it's beautiful forests, but besides beauty, the hardwood forests also benefit the area by:

  • providing wood & fiber to industry world-wide
  • offering world-class trout fishing streams
  • supporting a rich diversity of plants and animals
  • hosting tourists & recreationists from around the world
  • encompassing and protecting New York City's watershed
  • supporting generations of families through tree farming and logging


Through our program, CFA works to ensure that the Catskill Mountains have a productive, working forest for present and future generations.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Catskill Forest Association is to promote forest stewardship in the Catskill region by forest landowners, timber harvesters, foresters and the general public.  The association advocates quality forest management practices (especially forest stand improvement practices or 'FSI') for the purpose of improving the health of the forest, preventing threats to the forest ecosystem (including 'high-grading'), and supporting conservation efforts.
