Company Profile

Company Overview

Pacific Forest Trust (PFT) is a national leader in forest conservation that delivers landscape-scale results on the ground in the West and develops innovative incentives for forest conservation at the national level. We do so in ways that reward private landowners for managing for public benefits such as clean water, a healthy climate, and habitat for abundant native wildlife. Our work sustains rural communities, restores climate resilient forests, enhances water security and protects landscapes across ownership boundaries.

PFT has led the permanent conservation of over 360,000 acres of privately owned forestland and owns and stewards working forest conservation easements on 130,000 acres. We also own 2,100 acres and manage an additional 15,000 acres for ecological outcomes and sustainable wood products. Our projects are outstanding not only for their landscape scale but for their high standards for delivering multiple public benefits. PFT is thrice accredited by the National Land Trust Accreditation Commission.
