Ueland Tree Farm (UTF) has a long history of collaborating with both environmental groups and neighboring landowners.
Mark Mauren or I have at various times served on the board/advisory committees or as a key donor/partner for groups such as Forterra, Great Peninsula Conservancy, Kitsap County Park District, Keta Legacy Foundation, Peninsula Metropolitan Park District, and Pierce Conservation District.
We are very pleased to partner with and continue to support Great Peninsula Conservancy’s (GPC) initiative to create Green Mountain Community Forest, which would help:
- Protect and preserve critical habitat and wildlife corridors
- Protect the existing UTF trail system and collaborate with neighbors to provide connected recreational opportunities
- Engage community members and partners in the community forest planning process
We recently sent the following letter to the National Park Service in support of GPC’s initiative. If you would like to support or learn more about GPC, here is a link to their website:
