Membership
NAFO’s strength comes from its members — organizations, companies, universities, Tribal nations, and associations that are leaders in sustainable forest management. Together, they own and manage more than 44 million acres of private working forests across the U.S. and represent tens of millions of additional acres through state and national associations.

Climate Leadership
In 2020, NAFO members joined with leaders from The Nature Conservancy, Environmental Defense Fund, American Forests, and the American Forest Foundation to launch the CEO Principles.
Signed by 43 NAFO CEOs, this agreement established common ground on the role of private working forests in climate solutions. Together, these leaders advocate for market-based policies that harness forests and forest products to lower emissions, grow rural economies, and strengthen U.S. competitiveness.
