Healing Harvest Forest Foundation (HHFF) has a mission to address human needs for forest products while creating a nurturing co-existence between the forest and human community. 

Healing Harvest Forest Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization established in 1999 to develop, implement and support community-based sustainable forestry initiatives, through the widespread use of animal-powered (horse, mule, oxen) extraction of logs and “worst first” single tree selection of individual trees in timber harvesting.

Theirs is a “whole forest” eco-system management approach, toward the end of restorative forestry, community stability and achievement of their mission statement.

Their goals are to:

1. Support practitioners of forest improvement, sustainable forestry with financial and technical assistance.

2. Provide educational services to generate public awareness of community/forest interdependence and develop mutually beneficial relationships between forests and people.

3. Perpetuate truly sustainable cultural traditions that produce social capital through development of livelihoods that reward ground-level forest stewardship skills, protection of the environment, and preservation of family integrity.

4. Explore methods and technology relating to low-impact harvesting of forest products.
