The DNR is looking for input on State Forest planning
​

Every year, the DNR manages the forests to keep them healthy, improve habitat, provide forest products, and help prevent wildfires. This includes cutting and thinning trees, prescribed burning, and planting new trees. These actions are planned two years in advance.

Now is your chance to provide input for actions that will be taken in 2027. There is an upcoming open house as well as an interactive map with the ability to leave public comment.

Interactive Map link (Open for comment until June 25, 2025): 
https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/e516051384d84c8b9f7a4202a6aaaa1d/page/Explore?views=Public-Comment

The face-to-face open house for input will be on June 26th, 2025 from 3pm to 6pm at the Gladwin Field Office (801 N Silverleaf St, Gladwin, MI).

Comments can be submitted directly on the map page, at the open house, or through appointment. Contact Blair Tweedale at [email protected] or 989-426-9205 ext. 226-7640.

Your input will be used to make final decisions on forest management actions. Learn more about DNR state forest management and public input at www.Michigan.gov/ForestInput
The Gladwin Conservation District's mission is to lead, facilitate, and promote the
exploration, appreciation, conservation, and restoration of our natural resources.

​
Through our efforts and collaboration with community partners we strive to promote healthy waterways,
thriving forests, robust agriculture, and a community connection to nature throughout Gladwin County.
