Exemplary Forestry Management Inc

Exemplary Forestry Management, based in Portland, Maine, was launched by the New England Forestry Foundation and Maine Mountain Collaborative to manage the Exemplary Forestry Investment Fund, an impact-first vehicle blending $90M+ of public, private, and philanthropic capital to acquire and sustainably manage 100,000+ acres of Maine forest. It applies the 'exemplary forestry' model, a climate-smart management standard developed by NEFF that balances timber production with wildlife habitat and landscape-scale ecological needs. Its first acquisition was the 3,000-acre Scammon Ridge Headwaters property in Greenville, Maine.
