Gov. Kemp, Georgia DNR Announce 2026 Forestry for Wildlife Partners

Governor Brian Kemp and First Lady Marty Kemp joined Georgia Department of Natural Resources leaders recently in recognizing four corporate forest landowners for stewardship and land management practices benefiting Georgia’s wildlife.

Forestry for Wildlife Partnership has promoted wildlife conservation and sustainable forestry as part of forest management for almost three decades. Work varies from restoring habitat for red-cockaded woodpeckers to preserving wetlands used by rare amphibians and prairies with rare plants. The partnership also provides public recreation opportunities such as wildlife viewing, hunting and fishing.
