The forests of Pennsylvania add considerable wealth to the Commonwealth, not only in dollars from harvests on state or private lands, but also indirectly by providing a venue for activities like hunting, hiking, snow mobiling, bird watching, and much more.

Visit the Penn State Forestry Economic page for statistics on forestry's impact for each county in Pennsylvania, or for information on current standing timber (stumpage) and log prices, visit The Pennsylvania Woodland's Timber Market Report.
