The American Forest Farming Association (AFFA)

​

The American Forest Farming Association (AFFA) is envisioned as the natural evolution of the Appalachian Beginning Forest Farmer Coalition (ABFFC), which is set to retire in 2024 after almost a decade of great work.

 

Our goal between now and then is to gather input and ideas. We intend to draft a professional and inclusive association and operational template that will be open to public comment. The AFFA will likely resemble other professional groups, with sub-committees focused on topics such as science and technology, external advocacy, and member services. There will also be unique programs, goals and regions.
