This award is only presented to a few landonwers every year by the USDA Forest Service and the Texas Forest Service. What makes Eastman Chemical Company so special? Well, it’s because they adopted almost all of the recommended sustainable management practices on their forestland in less than two years. On the 40-acre Demonstration Forest, Eastman installed firesbreaks along stand line, harvested pines in two existing stands, mulched the harvested stands and other stands, and planted pines and hardwoods.
