State Managed Forests  


The Georgia Forestry Commission (GFC) manages several land properties throughout the state.  All of them operate under a multiple-use Forest Stewardship management plan taking into account the various wood product, wildlife, recreational, soil, water, aesthetic, historical, and cultural resources of the area. Some of the forests are available for public recreational activities.
