Forest Carbon
The Forestland Group started with a pilot project on TFG’s Champion, New York property in 2008.
Climate change mitigation is a core value driver at TFG.
TFG made an early bet on hardwood forests as an asset. In the last decade, as carbon markets emerged, our team became experts in U.S. forest carbon offsets.
We started with a pilot project on TFG’s Champion, New York property in 2008. Our sustainable natural forest management was highly compatible with generating offset credits.
Since 2008, we evaluated TFG’s entire portfolio to identify carbon project opportunities. In 2015 we earned the Climate Action Reserve’s Project Developer Award.
Forest Carbon Credits
When we increase carbon impact, there is a corresponding increase in returns.
Properties across the TFG portfolio with forest carbon projects deliver a significant financial return premium in addition to climate change mitigation benefits.

Forest Carbon Development Process
“TFG has the in-house capacity to develop forest carbon projects in short timelines.”
We conduct thorough property due diligence and pay careful attention to detail to implement projects efficiently and effectively through both internal processes and third-party developers.
We utilize boots-on-the-ground training and inventory techniques refined over years of experience to ensure our forest carbon project inventories are the highest design and quality.
We engage the industry’s top experts to validate and verify all our carbon projects to program standards to ensure the credits issued to our projects are real, additional, and permanent.
We leverage our 12 year carbon history working with established purchase partners and direct buyers to deliver high-quality, low-risk credits in both the regulatory and voluntary markets.
We embody a conservation ethic and set of investment principles that ensure our forests are continuing to preserve and enhance carbon storage across our projects and entire our portfolio.
