Welcome to the Catskill Forest Association, Inc.

We are a membership-based, nonprofit organization that provides forestry education and services to private Catskill landowners. We are currently caring for over 86,000 acres worth of private properties across Delaware, Greene, Otsego, Schoharie, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties. Join your fellow landowners and get started with your $65 consultation.

The 2025 Chainsaw Raffle is Here

Now’s the time to get your tickets to win a brand-new Husqvarna 550 XP chainsaw.  Designed for professional forestry and tree care crews, this durable saw has improved power and a slimmed-down design.  The winner will be announced at the Annual Meeting on October 4th.
