Focusing our efforts on forest management and education, the Kickapoo Woods Cooperative works with landowners, public and private foresters, loggers, sawmill operators, secondary wood manufacturers, and other resource professionals in the region to create a broad, positive impact on the local forest industry and community.

The Kickapoo Woods Cooperative ensures the availability of quality forestry services to members. We facilitate sustainable woodland management and harvesting, enhance the ecological and economic value of member woodlands, generate income for members, creates jobs and spur economic development, and minimize capital investment.

Sustainable forestry is a method of forest management that keeps all ecosystem functions in place while allowing continuous deviations. Any resource that is used must be replaced, keeping the ecosystem perpetually renewed. Sustainable forestry recognizes both human values and the intrinsic value of land and nature.

Loggers, landowners and arborists are invited to participate in a chainsaw safety seminar, a hands-on workshop co-sponsored by the Kickapoo Woods Cooperative(KWC) and the Kickapoo Valley Reserve.
