We envision a world where ancient trees and forests are valued, protected, and restored for their profound ecological, scientific, and cultural significance.

Feature Story:

General Sherman Tree Health Inspection

In 2024, Ancient Forest Society was asked to climb the largest tree in the world, General Sherman Tree, to inspect for bark beetle activity and assess tree health.

Ancient Forest Society is dedicated to the understanding, protection, and restoration of ancient trees and forests. Through scientific research, preservation initiatives, and immersive educational experiences, we promote the ecological, cultural, and climate benefits of forests worldwide.

By fostering connections between people and trees, we work to inspire advocacy, advance sustainable forest management, and ensure that these vital ecosystems thrive for future generations.
