Filming episode 2 of the “What Is It Worth” series with the Dogwood Alliance brought us to location outside of Abington, VA. We met Kaarsten Turner Dalby of Forestland Group, a company that contracts with independent forestry, environmental, and natural resource consulting firms to more effectively manage its timber and non-timber assets.We toured a 10,000 acre inholding that was the first private landholding certified under the California ARB project as pushed by the Carbon Canopy. The theme of this episode will focus on how the Forestland Group is actively managing the land to increase carbon storage over the next 100 years.
The location is a 10,000 acre inholding that is part of a much larger property owned by The Forestland Group in southwest Virginia. The site was the first private landholding certified under the California ARB project as pushed by the Carbon Canopy meaning that they are actively managing the land to increase carbon storage over the next 100 years. It will include special no logging zones with endangered forests, light touch logging sites, water, wildlife habitat and more.
