Abstract:

In North Carolina 84 percent of the woodland is privately owned; over half of that is termed \"family forests.\" This means that a family owns an acre or more with trees on at least one-tenth of it. In the state many owners hold between one and nineteen acres. However, many of these people do not have a management. Ney suggests ways these forests can be kept healthy and growing, and in some cases provide some income.
