Eldorado National Forest (California)

South Lake Tahoe

The Emerald Fire

Coeur D’Alene National Forest (Idaho)

North Fork of the Coeur D’Alene River

The Grizzly Complex Fire

The Grizzly Complex Fire of 2015 scorched a remarkable 30,000 acres. In response, replanting efforts introduced Engelmann spruce, western larch, and blister-rust-resistant western white pine to the affected area. 

Shoshone National Forest (Wyoming)

Burroughs Creek Loop 

The Burroughs Fire

The Burroughs Fire ravaged over 1,700 acres in the fall of 2013. Replanting efforts introduced whitebark pines to help restore integral forest within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, home to wildlife such as bighorn sheep and grizzly bears. 

Malheur National Forest (Oregon)

Blue Mountain Ranger District

The South Fork Complex Fire

In 2014, the South Fork Fire burned through 66,000 acres. This reforestation project contributed to vegetative recovery by manually replanting areas where conifer regeneration may have taken decades to occur naturally.

Seminole State Forest (Florida)

Isti Sandhill

Longleaf Pine Restoration

Following the encroachment of the Sandhill Pine species, restoration became essential to maintain a natural, functioning ecosystem. The project reintroduced native Longleaf Pine, creating habitat for a diverse range of wildlife, including the Florida black bear. 

Oregon State Forests

Willamette Valley

Forest Fire & Logging Reforestation

 White oak, black cottonwood, big leaf maple, douglas fir, dogwoods, and many other types of native tree species that thrive in Oregon's hilly landscape were planted to reforest state forest lands damaged by fires, logging and industrial tree plantations.

Cariboo, British Columbia (Canada)

The Hanceville Fire

The Hanceville Fire (2017) scorched approximately 590,000 acres of the Chilcotin with tree stand-destroying flames. To promote species diversity, the following species were planted: Douglas-fir, lodgepole pine, hybrid spruce, ponderosa pine, and trembling aspen. 

Goethe State Forest (Florida)

Longleaf Pine Restoration

Goethe State Forest spans 53,587 acres of longleaf pine flatwoods and swamp basins. It is managed for wildlife habitat, outdoor recreation, timber production, and ecological restoration. This project worked on restoring the longleaf pine overstory in an area damaged by wildfire.

GMUG National Forests (Colorado)

Slumgullion Summit 

Highway 149 Reforestation

This project focused on rehabilitating a section of the Colorado Highway 149 corridor over Slumgullion Summit, an area severely impacted by a spruce bark beetle infestation. As part of the restoration efforts, a diverse mix of Engelmann spruce, Douglas-fir, and lodgepole pine trees were planted to help revitalize the forest.

Flathead National Forest (Montana)

Swan Lake Ranger District 

Industrial Forest Restoration

Reforestation was essential in the Swan Lake Ranger District, a former industrial forest that had been extensively harvested. To restore the ecosystem and promote a healthy, diverse forest, a mix of Western larch, Western white pine, and Ponderosa pine trees were planted on 50+ acres.

Lincoln National Forest (New Mexico)

Sacramento Ranger District

The Scott Able Fire

A mix of Douglas-Fir, Ponderosa Pine, White Fir and Engelmann Spruce tree species were planted within the Sacramento Ranger District of the forest, as part of recovery efforts from the 2000 Scott Able Fire.

Eastern Ontario (Canada)

Rideau Valley 

This project worked with local landowners to transform idle land into thriving forests full of native Canadian species like sugar maple, red oak, burr oak, white spruce, white pine, and cedar. These growing trees will provide habitat and shelter for wildlife species like the white-tailed deer, red fox, and pileated woodpecker.  

New Brunswick (Canada)

Acadian Forest Restoration

This project planted a mix of native species including eastern white cedar, eastern hemlock, red spruce, white spruce, white pine, red oak, sugar maple, and yellow birch. Tree planting helped provide critical habitat for mammals (such as moose) and birds, including beaver communities that have dams and lodges within the planting site. 

Western Quebec (Canada)

Abitibi-Temiscamingue / Rouyn-Noranda

This project focused on restoring old abandoned farmlands. These terrains were cleared for agriculture in the past but never used. Planting trees such as Black Spruce, White Spruce, Tamarack and other native conifers enhanced species diversity and improved wildlife habitat in the area.  

Umpqua National Forest (Oregon)

North Umpqua Ranger District

The Umpqua North Complex Fire

Thousands of Incense Cedar, Western White Pine and Douglas fir seedlings were planted in Umpqua National Forest. This project was able to restore over 54 acres of land degraded by the 2017 Umpqua North Complex fire.  

Etoniah Creek State Forest (Florida)

Putnam County, Florida

Longleaf Pine Restoration 

Longleaf Pine seedlings were planted to restore 70+ hectares of the Etoniah Creek State Forest in Putnam County, restoring an area that's recognized as one of the most species-rich plant communities outside of the tropics.

Chippewa National Forest (Minnesota)

Wind Storm Tree Recovery

This reforestation project spanned multiple sites across the Chippewa, addressing various restoration needs, including areas affected by windstorms, insect infestations, and disease. The initiative aimed to enhance the forest’s resilience to climate change while improving wildlife habitat. 

Perryvale, Alberta (Canada)

The Sparrow Project

Three native species were planted across 210 acres of land for this project: white spruce (picea glauca), black spruce (picea mariana), and tamarack (larix laricina). This project used planting as an effective method to reforest the land and eventually return it to a spruce dominated mixed-wood forest. 

San Bernardino National Forest (CA)

The Lake, Valley & Cranston Fires

This reforestation project replanted areas of the San Bernardino National Forest that were severely burned by a series of wildfires: the Lake Fire (2015), the Cranston Fire (2018), and the Valley Fire (2018). 

Michigan National Forests

Hiawatha & Huron-Manistee NF

Kirtland's Warbler Habitat Restoration

This project restored eastern white pine forests in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and iconic jack pine forests in the Lower Peninsula to sustain the recently de-listed Kirtland's warbler. 

Upstate New York

600+ sites across New York State

This statewide riparian initiative was aimed at reforesting New York's tributaries—small creeks and streams that feed into larger rivers and lakes. By planting tree saplings and shrubs along these waterways, riparian buffers were established and enhanced.

Somerset, Kentucky

Rockcastle River WMA

This project reforested approximately 22 acres in the Rockcastle River Wildlife Management Area in Somerset, Kentucky. The project restored a former surface mining site by planting a deciduous shortleaf pine-upland oak forest.
