Overview
Description:
The term agroforestry describes a diverse and creative range of practices that integrates trees/shrubs, annual crops, livestock production, and forestry into complex land management systems that provide ecological, economic, cultural, and social benefits to landowner and communities.
As we face a changing climate in the PNW, agroforestry is increasingly seen as a critical solution for farms and forests to adapt to these new and unpredictable weather events. It also offers landowners a way to proactively use their land as part of the solution as these systems have great potential for carbon sequestration and long-term storage.
See examples of agroforestry projects on the district's website.
