Texas Forestry Association to Host Regional Meeting

Date:

LUFKIN, Texas — Forest landowners, industry leaders and forestry professionals from across East Texas will gather at the Texas Forestry Association Regional Meeting set for April 30 at Eden Hill Event Venue in Lufkin, Texas.

Forestry contributes billions annually to the Texas economy, supports thousands of rural jobs and sustains millions of acres of working forests across the state. East Texas remains the heart of that impact. TFA’s regional meetings provide a platform for informed dialogue, collaboration and forward-looking discussion among those directly responsible for stewarding and strengthening the resource.

“These meetings are an opportunity to keep our members informed and engaged,” said Rob Hughes, TFA executive director. “Forestry plays such an important role in both the economic and environmental health of our state, and it really makes a difference when we can come together at the local level.”

Attendees will receive updates on legislative and regulatory developments, industry trends and association initiatives, while also engaging with peers who share a commitment to the long-term health and productivity of Texas forests.

The free event is open to TFA members and nonmembers. The evening will begin with a reception at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner at 6:30 p.m. Advance registration is required. To register or for more information, visit texasforestry.org or contact the association at tfa@texasforestry.org or (936) 632-8733.
