Inventory of the American Tree Farm System Records, 1924 - 2007
What is this document?
This document, which is called a "finding aid," describes an archival collection.
In the course of daily life, individuals, families, organizations, and businesses create and keep information about their
activities. When such records are no longer needed on a day-to-day basis, a portion judged to possess enduring historical
value may be preserved and maintained as archival collections. Archival records take many forms, including correspondence,
diaries, financial and legal documents, photographs, and sound recordings. Archival materials may also include maps, scientific
data, artifacts, and electronic records such as emails or databases.
Prepared by archival staff, finding aids provide a history of the person or organization that produced the collection, an
overview of the collection, and a detailed list of the collection's contents.
Finding aids are used by researchers to determine whether materials within a collection may be relevant to their research.
While not exhaustive, finding aids help researchers identify the particular boxes or folders that may hold items of interest.
Descriptive Summary
| Abstract: |
On June 12, 1941, the first official tree farm was dedicated near Elma, Washington. The Clemons Tree Farm, owned by the Weyerhaeuser
Timber Company and named for local logger Charles H. Clemons, became the first in a succession of privately owned forest lands
certified for growing trees as a crop and practicing forest management in lieu of federal regulations. During the 1940s timberland
certified for tree farming was primarily owned by large industrial firms in the West, but as the movement gained momentum
and spread to the South, the participation of small landowners became a focus for outreach and growth, and provided the foundation
for a nationwide organization. Currently, the American Tree Farm System estimates that more than 88,000 private landowners
managing approximately 26 million acres of forest land are in the program.

The collection includes historical material such as essays from the 1940s and 1950s attempting to define the burgeoning tree
farm movement, inspection and certification records of some of the first tree farms, and early press clippings. The majority
of the collection's documents cover the organization's activities from 1980 to 2007, and include publications such as Tree Farmer Magazine and Green America, records of various awards for outstanding forestry such as the Tree Farmer of the Year and Inspector of the Year awards,
minutes and related materials from annual conventions and committees, records from educational initiatives such as Project
Learning Tree, and materials from notable tree farm dedications. The collection also includes numerous photos and slides of
ATFS events and activities, as well as films of educational programming and public service announcements.

Historical Note
On June 12, 1941, the first official tree farm was dedicated near Elma, Washington. The Clemons Tree Farm, owned by the Weyerhaeuser
Timber Company and named for local logger Charles H. Clemons, became the first in a succession of privately owned forest lands
certified for growing trees as a crop and practicing forest management in lieu of federal regulations. During the 1940s timberland
certified for tree farming was primarily owned by large industrial firms in the West, but as the movement gained momentum
and spread to the South, the participation of small landowners became a focus for outreach and growth, and provided the foundation
for a nationwide organization. Currently, the American Tree Farm System estimates that more than 88,000 private landowners
managing approximately 26 million acres of forest land are in the program.
The tree farm program, initially advocated for by the National Lumber Manufacturers Association (NMLA), was adopted by one
of their trade promotion subsidiaries, the American Forest Product Industries (AFPI), in 1946. The program became national
in scale during the 1950s, and focused on fire prevention outreach and support for self-regulation of privately owned forestland.
AFPI later became the American Forest Institute (AFI). In the 1970s, with Richard Lewis as national director, AFI focused
on improving the tree farm program's standards and record keeping practices. In 1976 the Tree Farm logo and name became registered
trademarks and the National Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year award was introduced. In the 1980s Lester DeCoster assumed
the role of national director of AFI.
In 1983, Tree Farmer magazine began publication, a periodical that is still in circulation in 2011. In 1986 AFI was restructured and the American
Forest Council (AFC) was created as an education and outreach organization to supplement the lobbying activities of the National
Forest Products Association (NFPA). The Tree Farm program survived the transition and remained a vital part of the AFC's mission.
The American Forest Foundation (AFF), a nonprofit organization chartered in 1981 with the purpose of encouraging sustainability,
wildlife conservation, and environmental education, became a cosponsor of Project Learning Tree (PLT) a year later. It took
over administration for PLT and the American Tree Farm System (ATFS) in 1993 when the AFC realigned with the American Paper
Institute (API) to form the American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA).
The 1990s were highlighted by the growth of the AFF's advocacy, policy, education, and outreach programs including Project
Learning Tree, Shared Streams, and Forested Flyways. Under the leadership of AFF vice president Bob Simpson for the last decade,
the American Tree Farm System has focused on supporting family-owned forests and establishing the ATFS certification program
as an international standard. As of its 70th anniversary in 2011, the ATFS included 88,000 family forest owners practicing
sustainable management of 26 million acres of forest land. By providing tools and on-the-ground support for family-owned tree
farms, the ATFS is investing in alternative means for supplying the growing global demand for wood products.
Collection Overview
The collection includes historical material such as essays from the 1940s and 1950s attempting to define the burgeoning tree
farm movement, inspection and certification records of some of the first tree farms, and early press clippings. The majority
of the collection's documents cover the organization's activities from 1980 to 2005, and include publications such as Tree
Farmer Magazine and Green America, records of various awards for outstanding forestry such as the Tree Farmer of the Year
and Inspector of the Year awards, minutes and related materials from annual conventions and committees, records from educational
initiatives such as Project Learning Tree, and materials from notable tree farm dedications. The collection also includes
numerous photos and slides of ATFS events and activities, as well as films of educational programming and public service announcements
by famous tree farmers such as actress Andie MacDowell, and actor Andy Griffith, musician Chuck Leavell, and President Jimmy
Carter.
Collection Arrangement
During processing of the collection, paper materials in a deteriorating condition were removed from the collection and replaced
with preservation photocopies. Several publications and promotional materials from third parties were also withdrawn. Wherever
files were supplied with labels we attempted to preserve them unaltered except where they were clearly incorrect. The collection
included two 3-dimensional objects which have been removed. Both items are described under Miscellany at the end of Series
4.
The records are arranged into 5 series.
