Comments:

This organization was started by the Healing Harvest Forestry Coalition, a group of around 50 horseloggers in the central Appalachian region. We are the only 501c3 non-profit organization that promotes the use of animal powered techniques to restore the forest of our communities. All donations to this organization are 100% tax deductible. Our primary goal is public education of the benefits of this practice, as it is understood to be for the public good. Part of our eduational effort is to fund a mentor/apprentice network and learning experiences through mentor compensation and student earn as you learn stipend awards. The process begins with intensive training in chainsaw skills/safety, horsemanship, and restorative forestry principals. Anyone interested in this organization is welcome to contact us.
