Hello from Forests for Maine's Future.

We're your source for forest news on the Web: Find out about:

Over the past week or so we've also tagged stories about the continuing controversy over new Gov. Paul LePage's proposed relaxation of environmental laws, new conservation lands in the Bangor and Augusta areas, and a fire at a wood mill in Norway.

Since the first of the year we've put up links to dozens of forest-related stories in state, national and international publications. Check out these and others by clicking here.
