Forest Management

The agency’s top priority is to maintain and improve the health, diversity, and productivity of the nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of current and future generations. Through rigorous scientific research, we strive to understand and protect the unique ecosystems of the Santa Fe National Forest. Our teams work tirelessly to ensure a healthy and vibrant forest for future generations.
